loved it. very angsty. sounds slightly puerile in the beginning but i think it does become profound at the end. I, therefore, like the surprise element. There is slight amount of incoherence but then incoherence sometimes is a product of rage. I guess that explains it. Millionaire has been made to rhyme with day, way, etc. i liked that. and i liked "fucking" juxtaposed in a loose way with "rape" .

Ready-for-rape
Something has got to- got to- give way
Things can't continue- can't- this way
We grow subhuman each soiled day
Timid rats, terrified of big birds of prey
Letting the Head-of-State, the Prez, get away
Quoting hearsay: `to go abroadÂ…
Get a visa Â… be a millionaire
Get your self raped,' people say
People is us- us, who don't really care
Who gets broken, by whom, when, or where
Who becomes a fucking millionaire
We are all ready-for-rape, anything, to get `there'

`You must understand the environment in Pakistan. This has become a
money making concern. A lot of people say if you want to go abroad
and get a visa for canada or citizenship and be a millionaire, get
yourself raped."
