Listen up, Z! Listen up A!
THIS is my SWAN SONG! OK?
I set the ground-rules way back when,
in Genesis 4:23-24.
Hit ‘em quick, hit ‘em hard,
seventy-sevenfold! Then hit ‘em again!
What is it makes the world go round?
Money, you say? I say WAR,
and it’s on oil that war is run.
You’ve gotta get in there, lock it down.
Global warming? Climate change?
Save the planet? Save for whom?
The meek can inherit what we’ve done –
to tidy up, to rearrange.

Let them plug in eco-lighting,
put up windmills, solar panels,
and drive electric vehicles
to flee from any nasty fighting.
The Chinese will finance the war
we’re going to have to wage against them,
and China willingly absorb
our WMDs and more!

And in the end they will forgive
our debts, yes, seventy-seven times,
as JC has commanded us,
while we devise, somehow, to live.
All together now, let’s sing:
Smite ‘em with a jawbone!
Slay ‘em with a sling!
