MacBeth for the modern era
Posted on 05:06 by Unknown
The cast
The 3 witches - Cheney, Bush & McCain
MacBeth - Barack Obama
Lady MacBeth - Hillary Clinton
Duncan - The Bill of Rights
Banquo - Ron Paul
MacDuff - Rand Paul
Birnam Wood - the great mass of the American people
The play
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble
Make them so scared
Til the people no longer cared
Burn down their crops til there's nothing but stubble
Give them stories of planes and demons
Make them scared of the heathens
Take away every one of their rights
Make sure they all get the frights
And willingly give up their freedoms
Let great debt enslave them
Let Corporations rule over them
Maintain their illusions
Spy with centers of fusion
Steal every penny of wealth from them
The people will have to stop their belief in false prophets
Make the government stop the raid on their pockets
Switch off the tv
Wake up and see
Rip the corrupt ruler's eyes right out of their sockets
Let protesters on the street roar
We've had it - we won't take any more
Restore our rights and the Land of the Free
We will regrow our Liberty Tree
Traitors in power - we will show them the door
Let the people storm the Ivory Castle
Make them see the lies out of Basle
Recall the 500 traitors on Capital Hill
Get the people to stop taking the blue pill
No longer will we be, your Corporate vassal
