Jimmy Carter Lyrics

The whole song seems pretty inspired by Yeats' "Second Coming". Especially the last verse, which borrows a couple lines even.

Another literary influence seems to be "White Noise" by Don DeLillo:

"And there's a toxic cloud hanging over; there's white noise on the screen."

An "airborne toxic event" is a major plot point of the book.
