Analysis of Look Alike Mindless People
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
Look alike mindless people.
Easy to manipulate.
Captivated by fake makers.
Creators of the moves they take.
To...
Lead them all into,
Mental institutions.
Look alike mindless people.
Easy to manipulate.
Monitored in institutions.
And programmed to imitate.
Faked.
Look alike mindless people.
Absent of common sense.
Captivated by fake makers.
And made convinced,
They have intelligence with competence.
Yet...
All of them led into,
Mental institutions.
Duped and use to attract more fools...
To produce and abuse.
Observed to witness.
Observed to witness.
Observed to witness this,
Followed and allowed to do!
Observed to witness.
Observed to witness.
Observed to witness this,
Followed and allowing them to do!
Absent,
From them has been...
Common sense.
Common sense.
Common sense.
Oh...
Absent,
From them has been...
Common sense.
Gone, lost...
And nowhere to get more!
Look alike mindless people.
Captivated by fake makers.
Easy to manipulate.
And...
Homemade.
Limited to staying...
Fools to use.
To attract even more!
Look alike mindless people.
Dopes to dupe.
Look alike mindless people.
Dopes to dupe.
And...
Defending what they've done to do.
And...
Defending what they've done to do.
Defending what they've done to do...
Among themselves!
