Sic of Elephants

You were right
 There was never reason to worry
 Money made your eyesight all blurry
 Making lists of pacifists
 Recalcitrant poses
 Can't you see how dangerous
 The one you chose is?
 Which brings us back to
 Might makes right
 So we learn from Wars of the Roses
 Pain was only fear
 Kneading your toes
 Making haste to spite your face
 To cut off your noses
 Convince yourself and others that these
 Fish smell like roses
 Can't you see how dangerous?
 When you're too content to make a fuss
 Can't you see how dangerous?
 Squint your eyes and see
 Elephants, sycophants, elephants
 Squint your ears and hear red-faced rants
 Pleated pants
 Sycophants
 That's what you are
 Can't you see how dangerous?
 When you're too content to make a fuss
