The Corporate Guarantee

Welfare recipients are tied to the whipping post of Canada's Conservative Party,
but you don't care, you still eat hearty!
The middle class are the door mats of governments present and past.
The legally defenseless make for easy political targets and
Conservative corporate tax breaks 2014 have just now started!

The middle class are slowly disappearing
Like the Sea Otter and Right Whale-
they fetch a pretty penny for the burden they're bearing.
Wearing out at the seams,
 like an old pair of dusty jeans,
from government depletion of their financial dreams.

The corporate guarantee -
Buy a politician to promise the middle class it too can be free,
they tell the public back us at the polls
It'll cost you nothing, you'll see!
Their party allegiance had already been pledged to their corporate beneficiary
and now that they have the power who needs integrity!

Whether Liberal, Conservative or NDP
Canadians are too scared to not vote for any of these three!
Politicians themselves are part of the web of corporate ascendancy
So the people too have some complicity.

Our government has us living in fear
They posit all the manufacturing jobs could soon disappear!
Better allow corporate interests free access to all your natural resources!
Better give them huge salaries and armed forces!
Better allow them control over your education and your medicine!
They're not asking, they're telling -let them in!

This is the height of any type of social welfare-
That a corporation can set up shop and operate without a care!
That the democratic process, out the window of freedom, is thrown
Many stories to her death, into the capitalist free zone.

Democracy at the expense of capitalism?
The two cannot freely coexist without one of them going to prison.
Wake up Canada it's your decision!
CEO's collecting checks in perpetuity?
Like cancer, requires immediate excision.
