In The Days Before The Crash (a 2010 Reminiscence)

The irony is - in the days before the crash
people were actually hesitant to get The Vaccine
Back when the U.S. population was just over 300 million
And it seems like yesterday that the riots were on the television
Television - that thing we all did at night
People looking like zombies with Captain Trips burning pharmacies

The irony is - in the days before the crash
people were actually fighting over health care issues
And whether the President was born in real America
Or was black enough or white enough or what have you
The same people with the conspiracy theories succumbed
Evolution proving once and for all salient

The irony is - in the days before the crash
people were so divided on every topic issue notion
The anchors screaming rhetoric tainted bloody
But now we all all understand
Like the first day after
Faith in science trumped - ironically
