drone   drone   drone   drone   drone
clone    that rides          the sky             alone
across a wilderness       of stone
a boneyard       waiting on its own
drone   drone   drone   drone   drone
without a moan a silent groan
floating over the            flyblown           zone
where everyone is dying or spying
and having        flown    without a          tone
drone   drone   drone   drone   drone
to hone in         on what            won’t be shown
above the         known and unknown    prone
condoning         droning             overthrown
more Capone   than Sly            Stallone
drone   drone   drone   drone   drone
where everyone is crying or flying
under the giant              videophone
where there is no need              to atone
drone   drone   drone   drone   drone
you can’t have your ball back
ner ner ner ner
