Kein Mitleid fur die Mehrheit

Alive, one says "choose life"

Dead, one says "choose death"

The rich one says "choose success"

The poor one says "choose pride"

The hero says "choose security"

The criminal says "choose fun"

A leader says "choose follow"

Another says "choose lead"

The beautiful say "choose humility"

The ugly say "choose adoration"



Alive, one says "choose life"

Its heartaches are frequent

But they fade as time passes

And besides, should life be too much to bear

We have what you need

To feel better

About the state you're in



Voodoo, c'mon and crucify me

Ride me, seek and hide me



Dead, one says "choose death"

A state of rest

Forever undisturbed

Numb to all the hurts heaped on you

In an entire life of living

But also to pleasure

Nothing worth doing for its own sake

Or any other's

Including yourself

It's a good existence if you consider the alternative



Shake what your parents gave you

Greatest birthday present ever



"choose success"

Climb the highest vistas

See true distance before your eyes

Although, please note

That looking back is detrimental

As is looking down

And the details grow a little fuzzy



Goddamn!  What's it gonna take

To get a little piece o' your puzzle?



"choose pride" he says, she says, they say

Work hard, love harder

And always do what's right

You'll receive your just rewards

Freedom from recognition

From power, from money

Pride is always for sale

If you know where to buy it



"choose security"

Feel safe, of course...

...while Big Brother keeps his eyes

On you



"choose fun"

The reason must be obvious

In any given society

There will be those

Who derive perverse pleasure

In flouting the Laws of our Land

That which is the Kingdom of Heaven

We cannot be exposed to this sort of

Behaviour

Our rulebook says so:

Whether you follow these rules

Or not

Our will be done



"choose follow"

Why?



"choose lead"

Why?



Got you where I want you, motherfucker

Bite this bullet I'm a feed you



"choose humility"

"choose adoration"

"choose go-fuck-yourself"

"choose I'm-in-love-with-you"

"choose..."

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Nothing special.  This one has received some praise, but I don't necessarily think it deserves it.
