Benjamin

Benjamin, science whiz
My computer bat friend
Tell me when, tell me when
I'll meet you ninja ben
At the back of the record store
With the tapes you secure
Prove the extent of the viciousness
As they purge out scientists
My computer bat hunts for facts
Campaigns funded by
The fossil fuel industry
How many of us will they own
To give them global mastery?
Sucking hydrocarbon from the ground
Those pimps in washington
Are selling the rape of america
As they attack juliana
Now there is no avoiding
Necessity resurrecting herself
And her daughters
Who will never be bought
Not by the men on the hill
Thread of life, measured quick
Spin then snip
Benjamin, science whiz
My computer bat friend
Tell me when, tell me when
I'll meet you ninja ben
Tell me when, tell me when
I'm in your army, ben
