Carrying promises from an idol
Crushing shoulders on the way to the throne
Whisper sweet lies to the vulnerable
Pull the meat away - throw the bones to the hounds
Peasants shovel waste from the grand feast
Prepared by slaves draped in gold
Crowned sloth
Spoon-fed by the lepers
The chalice reflects in their eyes
So they can feed their children from the trough
Behind closed doors I slither
Swallow your family whole
Stand on the backs of the starving
Take the gold from the sun
Feed on the crumbs that fall from my bib
My rotting food is mine alone
Let them eat cake
Feast on his head
