How You Can Dance

You can
launch your missiles
and you can
fire your guns
Pick off the little ones
and then
laugh as they run
You can send the weather underground
How you can dance
How you can dance all night long

You can
hide inside
with all of your
paper gods
who speak in silence
with omniscient nods
You bleed the earth I cry the sky
How you can dance
How you can dance all night long

There's always
something else
that you look
like you're doin
You pick your teeth
as you leave
hell in ruin
You push the poison, kill the cure
How you can dance
How you can dance all night long

You can
market temptation
and you can
sell your face
You can say 'thats's business'
as you
hawk your faith
Avaricious  seething  sycophants
How you can dance
How you can dance all night long
