LAWRENCE ON THE STREET WITH DESTRUCTION ON HIS MIND

by on April 7, 2012 :: 0 comments

Picture yourself sitting indoors with the TV blaring
Whilst outside all around is carnage everywhere
The rioters loot from the shop downstairs and
You worry that your flat is going to go up in flames
Just how you’ve seen on the television screen

Lawrence is on the street with destruction in his mind
So far he’s got a facebook page dedicated to him
Despite the fact that no one knew it was him who
Millions saw trying to rip a plasma TV off in a betting shop

You’re sat in yr flat watching the TV news
Thinking this isn’t how the revolution should be
Gill-Scott would be turning in his grave
This was not how he pictured the revolution
To be, it was not about a consumerist binge

Lawrence is on the street with destruction in his mind
So far he’s got a Facebook page dedicated to him
And a burgeoning celebrity career once all this is done
Burn down this, steal that, this is his revolution

What we have to ask is what revolution is for?
The bettering of a single life or an improvement for all
We downtrodden masses don’t want plasma screen TV’s
We just want a fair system that won’t hold us back
From doing what it is that we truly want to do

editors note:

Discerning the thug from the true revolutionary? If it’s your TV that’s stolen, Lawrence is a thug! – mh
