THE NO-SOULED, FULL-HOLED LYIN’ PURPLE PEOPLE-EATERS
by Shay Martin
An equation of the people's elites with people-eaters
Well, you see these things straddlin’ ‘top DC,
Who haven’t sense of mind, for all their degree?
I commence to shakin’, and I say: “Ooh-ee!
They sure look like People-Eaters to me!”
They’re no-souled, full-holed lyin’ purple People-Eaters;
Yes, they’re no-souled, full-holed lyin’ purple People-Eaters:
No-souled, full-holed lyin’ purple People-Eaters,
And they sure do shiver me.
They wage war ‘gainst their ‘bourgeoisie,’
But say: “This is what’s best for the country.”
I overheard once, in their voices so rough:
“It’s all about crammin’ into self all stuff.”
They’re no-souled, full-holed lyin’ purple People-Eaters;
Yes, they’re no-souled, full-holed lyin’ purple People-Eaters:
No-souled, full-holed lyin’ purple People-Eaters,
And they sure do shiver me.
I cried: “People-Eaters, what’s your want from me?”
They said: “Every single thing, and you’re still lucky.”
We might, then, ask what can be done
To overcome those eatin’ folks — more ways than one.
They’re no-souled, full-holed lyin’ purple People-Eaters;
Yes, they’re no-souled, full-holed lyin’ purple People-Eaters:
No-souled, full-holed lyin’ purple People-Eaters,
And they sure do shiver me.
Well, who’s not seen these things straddlin’ top DC,
Who haven’t sense of shame nor slightest decency?
Let’s commence to shakin’, and we’ll say: “Yee-haw!
We’ll sure bring these People-Eaters to law!”
We’re know-souled, full-hulled strivin’ Purple-People Eaters;
Yes, know-souled, full-hulled strivin’ Purple-People Eaters:
Know-souled, full-hulled strivin’ Purple-People Eaters,
And we sure do make proud me.
