(Medley: My Countries 'Tis O Thee)

My countries misery
          creeps and all losers be
                    of thee, I cringe
   
          And where our fathers lied
and pilgrims took their hide
          numb every mouth inside 
                                                     ... with the syringe

The natives can't be free
          and nobody can flee
                    my aim right on

                                        Guided by box of tricks
                              white hoods all pedophiles
                    shot with their fractured ribs
          high caliber

Sweat oozing felonies
          corrupt authorities
                    asylums for

                                        Their morals run away
                              regret that either take
                    sweatshops where riots break
          noose round swan song

     And where our fathers lied
and pilgrims took their hide
     numb every mouth inside
                                               ... with the syringe.

Tho it's an American medley, I included all three superpowers in the oddity melee, Silent One. I appreciate your timely sharing, my friend. Aloha, William
