"Sympathy for the sociopath,
Biting his cheeks trying not to laugh,
Blood fills his mouth with the taste of salt.
Nobody cares, but it hurts a lot.
Sympathy for the creditor, corner office on the highest floor,
Staring down at the streets below, the crowd erupts and the cops crack skulls.
You'll always find a way to get what you want.
Sympathy for the Type-A male,
Too cruel to like but too big to fail,
Sympathy for the new messiahs,
Who overreach and become pariahs,
Sympathy for the political class,
Warm smile and a bite like an asp,
Sympathy for the prison guard,
Strutting back and forth across the yard,
Sympathy for the dominant,
Sympathy for the violent,
Sympathy for the Stalinist and the exemplary capitalist.
You'll always find a way to get what you want until you don't."
