The Lie

Lying under oath With an American pin on their shirts They wave the US strategy Dance ‘n Killing and Smiling They plunder our economy Using the propaganda to show nothing is wrong The fox is in their bed to fill the illusion It’s hiding behind the bush to prevent the truth from showing And the hounds are on the chase Get out those guns he yells fight for democracy With a Sieg Heil under their breath They emulate what was long ago Listen closely to their words and phrases Homeland security is a neo-nazi face It induces post World War 2 Hitler’s German race Roves descendents created the cinders of Auschwitz’s Eugencies are alive and well in hiring questionnaires They want to know how you think They want to know how you’d react They twist your mind to test your reasoning We need true bloods to defend our way of life He rally’s the crowds enticing the young You can come home soon when the job is done I’m sorry, I don’t have a date Because the democrats wont give me the money to hold Iraq into a prison state. To fund the war you see where not invaders were liberators it just looks the same I have asked for a simple resolution An agreement without strings attached Without an ending date to pull the troops out Why cant the democrat’s compromise Why is it they don’t understand? That our solders are there to defend the American land To trick and sway Dictatorship! Through democracy is the only way.
