To quote the scholars of Rage Against the Machine:

Weapons not food, not homes, not shoes;

Not need, just feed the war cannibal animal;

I walk tha corner to tha rubble that used to be a library;

Line up to tha mind cemetary now;

What we don’t know keeps tha contracts alive an movin’;

They don’t gotta burn tha books they just remove ’em;

While arms warehouses fill as quick as tha cells;

Rally round tha family, pockets full of shells!
