New world disorder
Flowing across the border
Offering higher highs
As addicts lives get shorter

Fentanyl streams
Like a cartel boss’ dreams
The land of milk and honey
American tax-free money
Heroine with a fentanyl lace
Overdoses at a record pace
Don’t worry, the system’s fine
A war on drugs, pay it no mind

Government officials never lie
While our youth die
The F.D.A. says oxycontin’s-good
America clearly misunderstood

It was good for the undertaker
And owners of automated pill-makers
Greedy writers and fillers
Of millions of legal prescriptions

�COMING TO AMERICA

Big pharma
Corporate laws
Have kept them free from conviction
But how’s their Karma?
Sorry, don't mean to be a cynic
What about this opioid epidemic?
Another crack house
Turned into a pain clinic
As for the junkies
Big pharma created
New seekers of relief from withdrawals
That need alleviated
Demands were quickly filled
By the innovative,
South of the border
Masters of disorder

Cartel bosses now in charge
Of heroin and fentanyl orders
Using peasant farmers as
Chemists, mules and exporters

Wooden stick stirring
Rubber glove-wearing
Previously poverty-stricken
Opportunistics

Southern hills smoking
Like a Hobbit’s Mordor
As toxic fumes swirl up
And sting the grieving eyes of America
