82. What a burden
A crowd of people bent double from the weight of a massive lead
pentagon carry the burden for years and years, whilst on top of the
million tonne pentagon, a band plays country music to keep the
slaves holding it up.

And then one day, the slaves set down the burden and walk free
without a country band telling them they are free, they just walk
away and declare that freedom is their right.

And the pentagon shouts after them to remember the good times carrying
the big load, and how noble it was... claptrap.
