You Deserve Better

They told you you didn't deserve to be alive
They said your body was too broken to care for
They told you you didn't deserve to be alive
They said your mind was too different to believe
You deserve better
You can hate and you can rage
And you can love and you can be loved
You deserve better
I will fight alongside you

Emma Goldman, rise!
Emma, rise and save us!
Dig your way out
of your suburban grave
Raise us to liberty
Feed on the brains of the IMF
Chew through neofascists
Dance on the bodies of social democrats
It's your revolution
Rip off the limbs of the Stalinists
Wear ropes of liberal guts
Dance in the blood of nationalists
It's your revolution
Emma, I know you're sceptical of violence
but I'm sure you see
The re-animated corpses of the world's oppressed
still need to feed
Emma, I know you wouldn't join a war
of fascist constitutions
But let your rotting body dance with us
It's your revolution
Now

Antisocial behaviour of rat
Marcus had a hedge fund and it made him quite a lot of money
Walking down the Bishopsgate he sipped away at his soy latte
Looking for a quick way home he took a turn into an alley
Where he found a six foot rat who winked at him, said "Alright matey"
"I want you to fuck me
Get to your knees and lick me
Bend me over and take me
Rat gash will always come for you"
Antisocial behaviour of a rat
Steven was an MP for a well-to-do constituency
Kept it clean and kept it white and kept three houses on expenses
One night in the loos of his best Westminster-only hostelry
Met a six-foot rat who dropped their pants and then said "OK lovey"
"I want you to fuck me
Get to your knees and lick me
Bend me over and take me
Rat gash will always come for you"
Antisocial behaviour of a rat
Chief inspector Matheson of London Met Constabulary
Loved to have a wank when he'd just put a crim in the penitentiary
One night on a cell inspection, heard the door slam closed behind him
Found a six-foot rat with legs wide open who said "Now then sweetie"
"I want you to fuck me
Get to your knees and lick me
Bend me over and take me
Rat gash will always come for you"
Come for you

Charles-Antoine Blais was murdered by his mother
She said he was a burden no-one else should have to carry
The judge said she could be a help to other parents
Her defenders all agreed the boy was happy he was dead
Kayden Clarke was shot by the cops called out to help him
Kayden was an advocate, his voice helped people find themselves
His carers kept on telling him he was too dumb for college
He survived and he survived and he was murdered by police
We will haunt you
Robin Kitt Callender died from septicaemia
She was fifty three and she loved food and clothes and partying
The hospital discharged her without examination
No one asked how they could talk to her and so she died
Erwin Jekelius ran am Spiegelgrund
They murdered seven hundred and eighty nine children
For being useless eaters, their brains preserved for research
He died in the lubianka, the best friend you could find
We will haunt you
Daniel Joost, Malik Drummond, Shane Laycock, Demykho Forbes
Dustin Hicks, Jeremy Mardis, name unknown, Steven Rouse
Gulpreet Kumari, Hun Joon Lee, Sze-ming Chan, Carl Starke,
Jonah Jackson, Julian Roary, Omarion Humphrey...
We will haunt you

When Iain Duncan Smith was dead and rose to heaven
The angels put him in a throne and put a halo on him
Zaphiel got a cordless drill and a pack of three inch screws
And drilled the halo tight as it could go and more
Uriel slid a silver ring down each of Iain's fingers
The insides of the rings were lined with tiny spikes that tore his flesh
Arachiel tied his arms down with bare copper wire
Then ran a current through so it burned and burned
We will live and die on earth
While you sing forever in heaven
Raphael took a diamond hammer and gently tapped his kneecaps
Then tapped a little harder till the bone began to splinter
The angel laid on hands so the bone knit back together
Then broke it and healed it and broke it again
Samael cut a thin line down Iain's heaving chest
and with a loving grace and care began to peel the skin
The angel peeled it back just a fraction at a time
Enjoying the art of Iain's face
We will live and die on earth
While you sing forever in heaven
Adriel plucked his eyes out
Ahriman squeezed his heart
Ambriel played the muscle harp
Arariel took his toe nails
Cassiel pulled his tongue out
Camael fed him knives
Dumah drummed his vertebrae
Gabriel played with needles
Pricking him over
and over
and over
and over
and over
and then
They
Told
Him
He
