Well the Empire finally strikes back,
And they took their country back,
We do more with less and break our back,
MasterCard says pay the ransom handsome and you just might get your life back,
Multi-Media made their point with a post and a brass tack,
On billboards replacing truth with fake fact,
Then flipped the script like an friggin' acrobat,
There's a billion people in Africa, but you never hear about that!
The Vatican is made of pure gold,
The rich use religion as a vice to control,
The poor, who cling fast to faith to save their soul...
