Righteous Indignation

Have you ever really wondered why
All the nations shrink at our war cry?
When our bombs are droppin’ from the sky
Those cowards run an’ hide an’ die

It’s cuz we got the muscle and it’s cuz we got the might
That other little countries run when we demand a fight
We’ll shoot you in the daytime and we’ll bomb you in the night
Cuz explosions gets good ratings if’n I remember right

The war with the most casualties was when we fought ourselves
And when we fight an’ torch an’ kill, our enemies all go to hell
Because judgment is the role we play and damn, we play it well
And we’ll light you up with napalm just because we love the smell

We don’t care about gas prices, we just care about control
So grow your beards and shed your tears inside your shady spider-holes
Freedom’s comin’, war drum’s drummin’, and your sins will take their toll
Our God is bigger than yours, may he have mercy on your souls

Because we don’t have no mercy, and why should we? We’re the best
We have so much more than you and so we’re obviously blessed
It sure looks like we are more mighty than you would have ever guessed
We are better. We are righteous. We have more. You have less.

We have less sins to confess
And our system is the best
Rest assured we’ll prove it to you
We won’t lose, we won’t lose
We won’t let you say you’ve won
Burn our flags, feel our guns
Run and hide, but you’re still done
America is number one

Undying Love

The gray moon shot up quick that October night
Then hovered nervously, as if in fright
To see my true love’s corpse to be quite unsightly
I have dreams of her screams pounding in my head nightly

Her hair framed a face that wasn’t quite dead
As the worms and the beetles crawled over her head
She showed some emotion, bur remained quite still
Yes, hers was a figure that I could never kill

But that night she told me a terrible tale
About how her love for me started to fail
How she would be leaving for another man
And thereby destroying all of my life’s plans

I decided to take her for one final walk
Where we always would go when we needed to talk
And in our discussion I made it quite clear
Her professions of love were mine only to hear

She listened politely and finally laid down
Now her body sleeps peacefully there on the ground
I visit her often and lay down a flower
Oh, how I am moved by undying love’s power
