A number of musicians get into the spotlight because they take a political or moral stance, using their lyrics to make certain statements. Now you can do it yourself! Write some sofware to scan through internet news pages (local and international), randomly selecting words that aren't "everyday" words. A fancier version could check grammer etc. and print out hundreds of sentences for you, checking for themes and grouping them. The ideas are endless.
