C is for corruption of all thi-ings.

A is for the a-varice it brings.

P is for its predatory stea-ealth.

I for inequality of wealth.

T is for the tyranny it’s wrou-ought

on those everywhere that it’s been brought!

A is for the anguish we all sa-aw

as it fueled genocides and ignored law.

L is for the lives that it’s destroyed

through the racism that it’s employed.

I is for impunity from punishment.

S is for a Supreme Court that’s bent.

M is for the money that’s diverted

from the working folks to billionaires

many of whom used it in perverted

trips to Jeffry Epsteins island fair!
