Goodbye Cruel World

Being the worlds chief of police
Is so overrated
With all that we do
And they all still hate us

We're only here 
To keep up the peace
Spread our name brand 
Of Democracy

If you don't love us
Then kindly leave us
If you don't trust us
Won't hurt our feelings believe us

We'll bring it to order
One way or another
Kick out the leaches
Close down the borders

Once that is done
And they're out on their bums
We'll build us a wall
From the North to South run

The only thing Canadian
That we will let in
Is Celine Dion
And their cheap medicine

And that little Chihuahua 
From down below
Cause we love Taco Bell's 
Mex food to go

As far as the Middle east
They can do as they please
We won't be around 
To kick sand in our face

We'll pull out of there
Our American troops
Not just a few of the lucky
But one hundred proof

They can fight it all out
Amongst themselves
If they stick with the program
There'll be nobody left

We'll turn in our nukes
We won't need them no more
As we won't be playing
In their silly wars

We will be by ourselves
Closed off from it all
Unplug the phone 
If they try to call

Live in our bubble
Stay out of trouble
No longer hang out
With that bunch of numskulls

So lock up the door
Turn out the light
Toss out the key
As we say goodbye..

Political poetry is one my least favorite form but I can certainly appreciate the plight of the police who are never appreciated enough.
