Expatriation In the Greatest Nation

Written November 19, 2015 Paint it with Tom and Tiny Tim Then have thanksgiving dinner with your aunt Lisa and your crazy uncle Jim Here I am Uncle Sam I am Sitting on a white picket, barbed wire fence Spent two stints in the army With my aunt's uncle's great nephew Guess that makes him my cousin See we don't have much communication Expatriation leads the nation So I listen to a one of a kind hipster radio station That sounds just like the rest Let's have some fun and paint it red white and blue Hell, let's paint a picture of me and you Painting a picture of you and me Sitting on a dock overlooking the great blue sea You see, life isn't what you wanted it to be 'Cause in the end It's just a picture of a picture of you and me So go back to your story and paint it black and white Paint it with Tom and Tiny Tim Then go to the next thanksgiving dinner with your dead aunt Lisa and your now sane uncle Jim Here I am Uncle Sam I am Sitting on a white picket, barbed wire fence
