Backstabs and power grabs

Another end of the day in the USA

TV talking heads will put most to bed

Asleep at the wheel – Not knowing the deal

Or just not paying attention – That indeed is the intention

There is no retention of vital information

Behind closed doors is planned the misdirected nation

Daytime TV zombie shows like to sound all official

Cooking tips with bacon bits – And psycho babble drivel

Doctors yak about heart attacks – And how to pop a pimple

Little hints and playful stints to help you keep it simple

And very little broadcasting of vital information

From behind closed doors planning a misdirected nation

Not enough meat on the bone – Most just thoughtless grizzle

Useful information is broadcast only at a drizzle

Making sense of a days events is more than a mere puzzle

That’s why most just don’t keep up with a rapid fire bustle and the tussle

So the brain just gives in to the hustle of information

Packaged all too neatly for a misdirected nation
