Coercion

I could help you with your dud social skills

But I‘d rather laugh at your lack of sex

I could understand your feelings complex

But the frail make for such easy kills

I could understand all your social needs

But I’d rather shame you for being you

I could ask for cooperation true

But I’d just demand it. See where that leads

I could find your help to be effective

But I'd rather embrace suspicion strong

I could tell you how what you did was wrong

But I’d rather you remain defective

It’s coercion by ridicule of course

So much better than coercion by force

Critical Thinking

I’m here to tell you of thinking critical

I can tell ignorance won’t work for you

Tear down the walls of fiction for what’s true

Open your mind, see analytical

It’s time to do away with tradition

Charlatans and frauds are to be exposed

Ask yourself what isn’t being disclosed

And listen to the voice of suspicion

Reason and logic: Your friends in attack

Let the words of proof and clarity grow

Do not heed the words of the status quo

After all, they’re only holding you back

So stand up: Challenge everything you see

Just as long as it doesn’t include me

Boys Will Be Boys

Look at him: he’s trying to get a wife

He sees the challenge. He’s ready to fight

He doesn’t want to lead a lonely life

Couldn’t get more pathetic, am I right?

He has a job, a car, a money pool

Because he was told to get them – such lies

Does he know desire’s not negotiable?

His pleas for help are met with vague replies

He can’t escape this prison, He’s stuck bad

He’s got to prove himself: no mistaking

He’ll do anything to stop feeling sad

But he’s just a rapist in the making

He’s on a futile quest, his prospects grim

It sure makes me happy that I’m not him
