Hedonism

The story of Sodom and Gomorrah biblical sense
The inability of repentance

Turned to a statue of stone
The truth as it was shown

America may suffer the same fate
Evangelicals at the pearly gate

Lust, greed and debauchery 
A government in the troughs of tyranny

Vulgar and uncouth pronouncement of discourse
A divided nation without remorse

Plotting tax break for the most wealthy
Eliminating healthcare for the poor and unhealthy

America calls itself a Christian nation
Christ called for the lest of you participation 

Hedonism in the land of the free
God have mercy
