that at least is clear

The big ogres down in Washington
and the little ogres in Ottawa
they shower daily
careful not to give off the essence of outlaws

they've kissed the law books
and they got kissed back
living a lie like taming a pet rattlesnake
but there's no getting rid of the venom grins before the attacks.

I avoid them when I can
but their agents are everywhere
doing their duty
that at least is clear.
