Analysis of The F-O-L-D (Follow Our Logic Deviant)



How are you my pet?
Have all you need?
Are you all set?
Have all your wants and needs met?

Good, now it’s time to pay
With your vote for me today
Prove your loyalty and appreciation
To further our political masturbation

Of you my obedient pet
Just obey
And please don’t fret

We need your mindless conformity
As we employ our brand of deformity

Time to keep quiet and do as your told
As we bring you to heel
If I may be so bold

It’s the same story
That’s old and retold

We prey
You obey
And fit the mold
Of soulless servitude
To the heartless and cold
Surprise, surprise
Your existence has sold
To the lowest bidder
Is what I’m told

Now come my pet
And submit to the F. O. L. D.
(Follow Our Logic Deviant)

Eric (and sometimes not)
