Ignorance in Action

From the Lifesmith Group album, "Pablum."

How do you control ignorance in action?
One without reason, one without thought
How can you counter a caveman converging
Pulsating passion who’s never been taught
Talking won’t quell senseless aggression
Communicating takes a reasoning mind
Is there a way to mollify a raging beast
Must you resort to violence in kind?

Ignorance in action is a terrible thing
Society’s detraction the subhuman’s sing
Pointless destruction, the devil’s dark darling
Without compunction, remorseless bitter sting.

Let’s thin out the herd in Draconian word
Acid to clean out the gene pool
Destroy the prisons, they’re cellar dwellers
Eliminate those who break the rules.
When resources are short, we cannot support them
Who needs the evil and greedy
Good citizens everywhere deserve our assistance
Truly lawful and peaceful yet needy.

Pathetic Cro-Magnon with his little mind bent
Idiotic animal, brainless incompetent
Incorrigible creep, worthless element
Murderer and rapist unrepentant.

We cannot condone violent acts outside of
Self-preservation and such
Those who perpetuate evil on others
Have lost sense of real human touch
We will not advance very far as a culture
If we allow such scum to remain
Weed out the yard, strengthen the laws
And erase the ignorant stain.
