Carthage

Thoreau:
Hey Neil how is it going looking for a new location?
Farmer Neil:
That depends on if I can get a new vocation
Thoreau:
What about your original avocation
Farmer Neil:
Farmers today can't get enough work in the independent market
And corporations really don't learn to forgive and forget
And every industry has tobacco ties who deem me a threat
Thoreau:
Well when in Rome do as the Romans I say
Salt the ground like Carthage you've lost it anyway
You may not take down tyrants but you don't have to obey
Farmer Neil:
You're right they may now legally own the land
But they still have no authority to demand
Everything they got was at our command
