“do something! do something!” they chant,
to sycophants
who hide behind the party line
biding their time
hoping this current rage will pass
it never lasts
tomorrow’s news will out-broadcast
this breaking tide just like before
until the people cry, “no more!”
to sycophants, biding their time…it never lasts
