MOB RULE


MOB RULE

The rule of the mob
The “I reckon” crew
Taking all of their knowledge
From a red-topped world view

The rule of the mob
The “I reckon” crew
With knee-jerked responses
To headlines half-read through

The rule of the mob
The “I reckon” crew
Notions dressed up as facts
They “know” better than you

The rule of the mob
The “I reckon” crew
If doctors know nothing
Don’t let them operate on you

The rule of the mob
The “I reckon” crew
If experts can’t be trusted
It’s a dangerous brew

The rule of the mob
The “I reckon” crew
May have misunderstood
They’ll not admit it to you

The rule of the mob
The “I reckon” crew
Don’t bother with thinking
Just create ballyhoo

The rule of the mob
The “I reckon” crew
What they call knowledge
Is a dangerous brew

The rule of the mob
The “I reckon” crew
Hated all intellectuals
And the things that they knew

The rule of the mob
The “I reckon” crew
When the world turns to chaos
Don’t say I didn’t warn you

MAWH, April 2018
