Globalist Capitalism

Elite in the attic.

It felt alright to everyone else.

To believe they needed this chance.

To believe that cheaper is better.

To know that more is more.

I guess I got too expensive,

My extravagant way of life, my wife,

     a house, a yard, two kids and a dog.

But I've got a mortgage!

I'm still paying off my car!

My kids are in college!

My old folks are in a home!

Who cared about them?

They couldn't make a living anymore!

They got replaced by cheaper labor.

Globalism made them obsolete.

They made me too expensive.

You sold them my dream,

The lavish life in prison,

Always answering to the privileged prick,

The same one that looks at me now.

I'm a knowledge worker,

I'm a stooge and a fool,

When I'm training my replacement,

I'll be training a machine.
