true grit
"what did you do grandpa?",
"in the Iraqi war?"
"i bravely attacked americans",
"and made damn sure there was more"
"this country needs a war",
so we waved the bold nose-grows,
while we followed our new emperor,
picking up his corporate clothes,
and while we wish he spoke like Tony,
we couldn't still fathom a phony,
we were too busy watching CNN,
and being in, that thick and thin,
of it and all the dollars,
and crazy European hollers,
"so, i bravely attacked americans"
who i saw burning american flags,
who dared to cross my self,
and who dared to block the street,
who dared to think for themself,
"and who i damn well better not meet"
so, i bitched and i complained
about the protesters who abstained
from the mindless process of rape
and all that beautiful titilation on tape
that puts "us" all in the lap of comfort,
that puts "our" mall near the track,
that let's "us" golf with bad backs,
and pays for "our" education,
so just use your imagination,
and try to understand, these things i speak of,
when i tell you my sweet grandchild,
"i bravely attacked america's dove" |
