A Wraith in the Apparatus

Little boy cries wolf for he cannot see

The emperor's new clothes syndrome

This diabolical transparency

Transitional seasonal change

Come palpate the shame

Another reign another dogma

Another shibboleth passes away

Harmless or nefrarious

A gilded new church

A false god to worship

Blind acceptance with no repentance

A jaded new church

A false deity to service

God save the king

Send out succour

There's a wraith in the apparatus

Long live the king

Genuflect before this mammon

A false idol to revere

A corrupt church of the blind

Cathedral of idiocrasy

A malfunctioning mechanism

A new hymn of praise to sing

But I serve only the true monarch

God save the king

A bewitching ritual to seduce you all

Apocryphal church a false god to worship

Fallacious disingenuous

Lords of the illusional new church

Pre fabricated pope to service

God save the king

Send out succour

There's a wraith in the apparatus

Long live the king

Repent

Necessity is the smotherer of all invention

God save the king

Send out succour

There's a wraith in the apparatus

God save
