what is the left, what is the right
two cheeks, the same old farting ass
are these actors who claim they fight
are not their puppet strings in sight
is what they spew familiar gas?
what is the left, what is the right
a head, a tail, so close and tight
two sides, one coin, one made from brass
are these actors who claim they fight
they know the magic words, alright
here "change", there "change", and "middle class"
what is the left, what is the right
how could they both pretend this fight
their words resound the same through glass
are these actors who claim they fight
more of the same, no change in sight
for no one dares to wipe this ass
what is the left, what is the right
are these actors who claim they fight
(C)2008, Christos Rigakos
