"When no one looks the
clouds come rolling in,
And under darkened
skies the buildings
grow big teeth and eyes.
They breathe and walk
through unending dorrs,
Eating restaurants, and
barbershops, and hardware stores.
With catch phrases
and hingles stealing,
Stell and concrete lies
The corridors of Babylon
are craning for the skies."

"Who's behind the curtain anyway,
Who pulls the leavers and tells the lies?
Giants roam the land today,
Gaining dominance with every stride."

"Oh don't you cry for
the mom and pops,
Nothing but dry eyes
for integrity's demise.
Hulking machines
grind as whistles blow,
Corporate Darwinism
crushes everything below.
Advances in efficiency
increasing productivity,
Are narrowing the
margin for liberty."

Gaining dominance with every stride."
"This house is haunted
by the ghost of Adam Smith,
The Wealth of Nations
and the further death of innocence.
To rule the world,
the desire of every man,
The earth is shaking,
There are giants in the land."

"See the blood red
sun is rising,
On the broken carnage
from the darkest days.
Ginads locked together
arm and arm,
Pushing all the
meek out of the way."
"Who's behind the curtain anyway,
Who pulls the leavers and tells the lies?
Giants roam the land today,
Gaining dominance with every stride."
