Pasteurized Milk & Money

The leaders are doing the best they can,
If only they would take a stand.
And we can all fix politics,
If we can think of some 'never-ever' tricks.
Forget the cakes,
Let's all drink shakes
And mint ice cream...
Now, we're living our dream.
We're living longer than ever,
Medical science is oh so clever.
Everything is going well,
Even if we all feel like hell.
Technology will always save the day,
By clearing another forest away.
Pushing buttons and papers along
Is how we determine right and wrong.
And all the pollution will just get better
If we follow the rules to the letter.
It's all fine and dandy,
Let’s give everyone candy.
In fact, it's all looking sunny,
In the land of pasteurized milk and money.
