American Sigh

All is as grass
all is as grass
burned beneath a soulless Sun
parched and lifeless
gasping
Yet isn't it cool
How totally posh
Paris Hilton looked
on her last show?
And don't tell me
You didn't catch
The last "American Idol"
Absolutely bitchin!
America fiddles
While the world burns
America piddles
As their stomachs churn
Islamofascist terror!
Please, keep us secure!
We cede our basic rights
Just keep them from our door!
Fuck Roosevelt
Fuck his 'Fireside Chat'
'We have nothing to fear
but fear itself!'
Who fucking told him that?
We'll gladly sell our souls
And give our firstborn child
Just cut the brat in half!
Solomon's not our style!
Please keep us safe
Whatever the cost
So what if all we love
Is lost?
Rights don't do you much good
When you're dead
Some sage or priest
Or Senator said
Better red
than dead
I always say
When
did
our country
go
away?
