Uncle Sam

Sam, Sam, the drunken man Hiccup, hiccup, stagger Sprayed by the skunk again Stench replaces swagger Uncle is a rebel Standards sinking lower His Lust rings the death knell Evil hands him over Hiding in the closet Moving from the shadows Twist the truth to posit: "Counterfeit their credos." Urge grows ever stronger Evil, even bolder Acts are growing wronger Sin the grim slave-holder Sam, Sam, I know your plan Play up victim chatter Play down the bogeyman Censor subject matter Uncle is a front man Paid to shill and tell lies Lots of circus but no bread The simpleton complies Mocking moral wisdom Bucking discipline's yoke Twist the honor system: "'Love your neighbor,' a joke." Your debt is piling up God's wrath, boiling over Closer is His shake-up When judgment takes over Sam, Sam, you feckless man Your gambit won't pay off You shortened your life span Your dying branch sawed-off Uncle is agnostic Paganish and profane Justice is sarcastic His rulings are insane God's kindness towards you Will no longer remain Vengeance is overdue Consequences are plain Cut from His olive tree Due to your unbelief Uncle's owed penalty Acquits God's faith motif- "Faith is not a Schemer"
