an angry song i began writing they day after bush was re-elected:
VIRUS
I have lost my faith in America
and I have lost my faith in its people
From the land of a broken culture
we have clipped the wings of its eagle
A virus has swept the nation
Seeped into the bloodstream
Satiation of a bad dream
Contracted from a dirty needle
These are our deserved gratuities
We are feeble to immunities
Symptomatic disillusionment of slaves
to right-wing sodomy
We're digging graves for our economy
Four more years of heartache
Four more years of pain
Four more years means "for more war!"
It's "more of the same"
BUT THIS IS NOT MY FUTURE!
This is a personal vendetta
Hardly a total representation
I'm gonna write a letter, ask for your resignation
And it's gonna be signed
by all the people you've infected
This time you'll be elected
to a position you hold so dearly
As just a corporate sponsor that cannot care
Sincerely, your worst nightmare
'Cause it's four more years of bullshit
Four more years of shame
Four more years means "for more war!"
It's "more of the same"
BUT THIS IS NOT MY FUTURE!
I am an angry American
who cannot seem to scratch this itch
caused by this virus, infected red blotches of skin, I curse
Goddamn cocksucking motherfucking piece of shit son of a bitch
I said Goddamn cocksucking motherfucking piece of shit
son of a bitch
Four more years of anger
Four more years to blame
for four more years of "for more war!"
It's "more of the same"
AND THIS IS NOT MY FUTURE!
NO, THIS IS NOT MY FUTURE!
This is not my future of death
of blood on my hands
from dealing with oil
of ignorance
of ceaseless war
and unjust sacrifice
where freedom is not free of lies
No, this is not my future
Virus
