just what we need          a headless corpse walking

our kind of man              we need people like him

to spread the message              corporate ideals done deals

we have him where we want him          the headless corpse walking.

 

Put him on a plane          to meet our clients

savvy switched in types          name tags

bifold minds          lavish kitchen diners

wives with tight vaginas.

 

if he has kids all the better          they will be blown apart to be smart

and indulged          he's our man, whatever.

ambitious  meretricious          his tastes only the latest

what he picks up on the hoof          and in the kitchen parties

 

it's as american as we can get          sweeten him up but with force

slap him in the face with figures          to keep him in line

 

headless corpse walking          in the future that can be recycled

all in good time          and he can get fucked

like us all          when the time is right

as his light starts to fade          and his body flatulates

with the wonderful fucking mystery of it all

when the reaper comes to call

 

and there will be others.
