Phonies in Heaven
(a song for Rush Limbaugh)
W/apologies to Eric Clapton & Will Jennings

Would you put me down, if I saw you in heaven?
Would you lay the blame if I saw you in heaven?
I must be wrong to sing this song
'Cuz I know I won't meet you in heaven

Would you take a stand if I saw you in heaven?
Would you reattach my hand if I saw you in heaven?
What would god say if you had your way?
'Cuz I know if you're there it ain't heaven

Time makes you a clown, time can make you wheeze
Time kills a soldier, the soldier's phony, soldier's phony

After the war there's peace I'm sure
'Cuz we know there's no phonies in heaven

Good reading! Favorite quote: What could go wrong?
Beyond war, inflation, the end of the technology/productivity wave, and financial collapse, we think the most potent and short-term threat would be societies demanding a more ‘equitable’ share of wealth.
