Analysis of Pawns



                   The Truth Ministry
                America’s new religion
               Preaching day and night
                  Servicing indecision
                    Making it all Right
                                Cut
                                Cut
                              Take II
                          Censorship
                Corporate competition
       Mainstream stomping and lynching
        Slashed fact cleansing and rinsing
       Are we just pawns so easily fooled
