Global Village Idiot

(n.walusko)

Got a letter - maybe better that i get a piece of you instead

All the chatter doesn't matter when you realize it wasn't read

Can't be nothing when it's something that will get

Attention anyhow

Like a doggy in the window with his head a-going up

And down

Sister suzie with an uzi that eventually got her fame

Next door neighbors doing favors for a pipe dream in

The media drain

"she was always such a quiet...such a quiet neighbor

Of a girl."

But no one asked her what it's like to be a stranger in a

Stranger world

Have a vision in collision with the vehicles you had to rent

Loud as honey dripping money for ideas in retirement

Little brother watching big brother watching for a

Thought disease

And no one caught 'em picking petals in the minds

Of psychodaisies

Stop the world, stop the world, i'm a global

Village idiot

As it turns, as it turns out to be the biggest job

I forget

Tone of silence rings the violence like a halo resting

On the horns

Make the angels so pathetic with their cybernetic

Crown of thorns
