Analysis of On A Mission To Defeat
Lawrence S. Pertillar 1947 (Connecticut)
They're on a push to ban books.
But not the liars and the crooks.
Or deceivers of the fraud.
Corrupt the rules and break the laws.
Their minds to keep deluded,
Has messed them up.
Messed them up.
Messed them up.
Their minds to keep deluded,
Has messed them up.
Since their creation of Adam and Eve.
They're on a mission to defeat,
A greatness of their own diversity.
But this to see does not them please
Because of an image that takes a backseat.
Their minds to keep deluded,
Has messed them up.
Messed them up.
Messed them up.
Their minds to keep deluded,
Has messed them up.
Since fiction for them is reality.
They're on a mission to defeat truth.
On a mission to replace truth with lies.
They're on a mission to replace truth.
But where will they go,
When all their fiction ends.
They're on a mission to defeat truth.
On a mission to replace truth with lies.
Their on a mission to replace truth.
But will the go,
When everybody will know...
That,
Fiction living has its end.
Fiction to live it has its end!
