about

At first this was Anchorage Bankers but then Michelle Shocked came out with that nice song about Anchorage and so I changed it to Baton Rouge Brokers. Haven't found how to spell prophesizement, if that's even a word, but the song is prophetic or at least insightful about how Wall Street interests run things, how money is God and nothing must get in the way of the high priest or the sociopath (if they are different).

lyrics

The sky is dispensable the earth is worth a lot
according to Baton Rouge brokers who think they're hot
their advertisement their prophesizement time will pass
in which our forces turn our resources into cash

2.
The president don't hanker to hear the seer at all
he's busily representing a street called Wall
he stands at the curb explaining in words tellin us why
without question we must follow directions he'd never lie

3.
I didn't vote 'till I heard that man
Agnew said that summer the greatest honor for an American
is to fight hard for the right guard politician
even if he's a maniac Caesar oh oh

even if he's a maniac Caesar oh oh
