These Blues lyrics take it further though, and say/sing what I've seen for a while - that even the wages and salaries we take for granted, as a way to pay our way through life, are bribes.
So sad, really, that from the hardball-cynic view, almost everything the modern western materialist world's people, and the aspiring billions take for granted, and as necessary merely for survival, are also really a sick-sick-VERY-sick western hegemony's, the global elite's, bribes for us to be allowed to live.
Allowed to live so they, the elite, can stay on top of the economic and material-wealth world.
In the perfect world, where the LAWS were Evidence-Based, and Scientific, therefore True, Proper and Correct, we would not need nor even desire the larger part, perhaps 95%, of all the shit we think we need to survive.
Ask any Aborigine!
Happiness, is not a consumer item, not a commodity, not a service or material product.
Lots do know that money cannot buy happiness.
Sure, when we're stuck in a culture which only recognizes material wealth as a measure of our existence, it's even dangerous to live without at least some material trimmings/trappings.
Dangerous mainly because the idiots sold on materialism will hunt you down and leave you in the gutter, if you show any disregard for material products and any perceived need, for them.
This too, is a sign of how insane the mainstream is/are, when they, the majority, is so steeped in the ignorance of placing material wealth before personal intellectual and material balance, and happiness, condemn those of us who know better, who live without any excess of material trappings, and even go to the extent of making one's life as miserable as they can.
Typical whiteguy, as far as I'm concerned.
So..., here's my latest songing on the subject.
I Dedicate the lyrics/song, to All Whistleblowers, but mainly to the world's current Champions of Being Honest and True,
Private FIRST CLASS Bradley Manning of the United States Military,
Julian Assange of WikiLeaks,
Edward Snowden of the United States of America, ex-Booz Allen Hamilton,
and to those who have dropped off the media radar,
John Kiriakou, ex-CIA analyst,
Jeremy Hammond,
Et Al, Et Al.
All Strength To You! Champions For Human Justice!
Corruption is a mental illness.
Corruption
is a mental illness.
Every
pound/euro/dollar, is a bribe.
Corruption
is a mental illness.
So
don't give me your crazy lies.
Corruption
is a mental illness.
Every
shekel you save, is a bribe.
Corruption
is a mental illness.
Don't
want to hear your crazy lies.
Been
in us since the fall from Eden.
Been
with us for a long long time.
So
long we just don't see it.
So now
we only know the crooked line.
Corruption
is a mental illness.
Your
weekly wage, is a bribe.
Corruption
is a mental illness.
So
don't give me your lost-tribe lies.
Everything
the school's teachin',
Everything
the preacher's preachin',
Tells
you how to take a bribe.
In
University you learn.
To
treat what you earn.
As a
qualification.
To
take a life-long vacation.
From
being honest with yourself.
Morals
hide on a shelf.
Take
the silver known as wealth.
'Til
you forget.
That
all of it, is a bribe.
Higher
up you get,
The
safer the bet,
Salaries
and bonuses,
Are
high-end silencer bribes.
The
next step of course - is government!
By
which I mean, you work for the bank!
O'
course c'rruption's only so.
'Cause
of, c'rupt law.
Corruption's
only so,
'cause
the rich steal wealth from the poor.
That's
why,
Corruption
is the rich man's madness.
Landlord's
buy, the poor with a bribe.
Corruption
is the wealthy madness.
So
don't give me that high-end white faced jive.
They
say it's the devil in us.
They
say it came with “the fall”.
They
say it's money, they say it's greed.
I say
it's 'cause they don't let us, grow what we need.
Corruption
is a mental illness.
Disruption
of the intelligent mind.
Corruption
is a mental illness.
Make
True Land Laws, an' see-e what we find!
E'ry
nations' got tales of crim'nals.
All
tell the same ol' score.
Started
out fine an' upstandin'.
But
turned bad, for some greedy elite war.
Man's
soul can take a batt'rin'.
Can
get up again and again.
But
we's all got a limit.
When
it's impossible to forgive it.
His
tolerance comes to an end.
After
living amongst evil.
after
tryin' to hold a good line.
E'en
the best of the noble.
Will
take the money,
Jus'
to, void the fine.
After
fighting evil.
Tryin'
to hold to the truth.
E'en
the best of the noble.
Will
take the money,
to
the landlord's noose.
Corruption
is a mental illness.
Every
thing, is a bribe.
Corruption
is a mental illness.
So
don't give me your crazy whitefaced lies.
