Red Bears and Glass Snakes

Big brother on the corner and in the sky Big sister in the mixed bathroom With a finger in your apple pie. Credit cards only -no need for cash the eagle has both talons on every greenback. An unholy border along the banks of the Rio no cash bail for all those cartel and fentanyl fellows... and they call me crazy for having lead dreams... under my .38 caliber pillow. While the red bear mauls its neighbor the dragon slides steadily toward Taiwan Ten asps are slowly surrounding the dearest children of God. Thousands of buzzards in plutonium nests scanning the plains of Armageddon for a couple of beakers of flesh. But it'll be God who has the last laugh as he slings a giant blue stone and turns every snake into shattered glass.
