Whether by Hollywood or our screen time
People are glad when the bad are victimized
This is vengeance’s modern world sublime

Fairness & justice are now bleeding out
Efficiency’s coup has stolen man’s seat
For gross power our decency’s lost clout

Really just want the urbanites in jail
They think laws should never effect the whites
