SOCK PUPPETS

Well see that sock puppet move,
A secret hand controls its mouth,
We must identify the hidden hand,
To know what it is really all about.
Some claim this world is a stage,
In the case of politics it is so true,
For behind the great Oz’s curtain,
Powerful elite tell them what to do.
No, don’t you dare begin to think,
That a politician has his free will,
For if he fails to obey his masters,
He just won’t remain in office still.
Powerful lobbyists & deep money,
No doubt influence his every vote,
Thus if he is a smart sock puppet,
He won’t ever try to rock the boat.
