Bewildered

Bewildered and bemused
Don't know what to believe
'Cause those with influence
Practice, to deceive

News made up
And then reported
Based on deceit
The facts distorted

At present, the ones of power
Have their way
But, reckoning surely
Will be one day

Can it go on forever
More than need
The quest for more
A continual greed

Just pay your taxes
And toe the line
Don't ask pertinent questions
You'll be fine

Those, of power
The ruling classes
Have wrong-doing immunity
Over the masses

They cheat or deceive
Influence, is the key
With money, anything's possible
With impunity

Why is it so blatant
Carrying on, in this way
There's always been corruption
But, not like today

Government and industry
Medicine and finance, there's mistrust
Anguish and disappointmant

Not-to-mention, disgust
