Horrible poetry for the digital age

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;
None but ourselves can free our minds.
Have no fear for atomic energy,
'Cause none of them can stop the time.

How long shall they kill our prophets,
While we stand aside and look? Ooh!
Some say it's just a part of it:
We've got to fulfil de book.

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom? -
'Cause all I ever have:
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs;
Redemption songs.

The dragon awoke
Fiery morning breath - *Cough* - Eh..
Beowulf is no stranger

Underground, far off
Behind the curtained stage
Lay slaughtered sheep

Channeled garbage
Out of tune 24/7, until...

the constraints of time,
the pain, the pleasure,
