United States of Apathy
wake up hysteria,
good morning america;
don't panic but your
countries senile;
the politicians are evil.
what's the media feeding you?
propaganda and slander,
B. S. by the bushel,
big oil officials,
deceit by the barrel
thats current america.
But I pledge allegiance
to corporate america;
to the united states of apathy
and oxymorons; one nation
under Allah with liberty, justice
and health insurance for
those who can afford it.
my country isn't free,
sweet land of irony.
