Political Currency
Part 3

Don't we have enemies?
Aren't they unkind?
Don't we disagree?
Don't you want to shove them in a sewer?
Don't you want to kick them?
Why are we denied these pleasures?
Why are we denied these joys?
Don't we hate them with their tax cuts
And their bags, their stupid bags, their stupid fucking hats?
They have such awful hats
Hats that ruin their hair
Not they have such nice hair to begin with,
But don't I hate their hair? Ohh, how I hate their hair.
Don't we have enemies?
Aren't they fools?
Fools for believing the things they believe?
They believe such stupid things
And they're wrong
And I know it matters:
These distinctions are deep.
Don't we disagree?
I hate what they think;
Can't stand what they think;
Think their plans are stupid I think;
Their incursions are stupid I think.
Don't we disagree?
Isn't it obvious?
Why are we denied the pleasure of disagreeing?
Why are we denied?
