Experts
Thank goodness for all the great experts,
Who teach us all how to survive.
Without them we'd burn lips on hot coffee,
Even without robots we'd drive.
We'd certainly remove all the labels,
We'd eat loads of eggs and real butter,
We'd skip all our vaccinations,
We'd never get news from each other.
All flights are now safe from harassment,
As the terrorists go right on through.
The T.S.A. groping keeps us all safe
From the C.I.A. false flag crew.
But if you get tired of all the bull,
You can always turn on CNN,
For all the fake news you can handle
'Til reality strikes us again.
If the Russians can steal our election
With no single voter even harried,
Whose to stop Putin from saying
Where all the Clinton bodies are buried?
I'm sure that we're all quite psychotic,
And we really should not keep a gun,
WMDs, 911 and Benghazi,
Ain't this democracy fun?
These experts are just so much smarter
Than we simple farmers and hunters.
Let's turn off the lights in their cities,
We'll see they're all really just punters.
You see, if you need an expert
To tell you what is true
There really is a big problem,
But it's not them, it's you.
