Monsanto Claus

by John Shumaker

Well the elves are busy working all day making toys
so kids can play
and down in St Louis
they rolled back the curtain
on the window display
to reveal a different kinda Santa
yep at the world headquarters
they’ve revealed
the new updated version with all the gizmos bells and whistle
yup a real unlive clone from the undead dead
step right up and see
just before christmas
Monsanto Claus
Yeah this is the new Santa who doesn’t
shout out with glee
or climb down the chimney
or say HO! HO! HO!
This one just belches out
with an airhorn speaker
GMO! GMO! GMO!
Yeah this Monsanto has got CLAUSes written
into every bought off state legislature
that EXEMPT Gmo’s from food labelling
in domestic consumption
while Europe is wise to their shit
and won’t let GMO’s in
or anything else Monsanto Claus is peddlin
they’ve got domestic U.S. (US)
bamboozled hoodwinked and stymied
no wonder the whole shithouse is schizophrenic
and the products they’re pimpin like illegal drugs
to consumer junkies (US)
has been “monsanitized” in
all the advertising
not mentioning one damn lie
the whole Monsanto shithouse is purveying
Have ya had enough of Monsanto Claus
well get up offf the couch
get up off your duff
and do somethin about it
AHO!
