Wake Up

You say you can’t believe that pile of ,
We built that bit by bit by bit by bit.
We tuned out all the news and all the twitter;
We let him grow bold while we grew bitter.
Congressmen and senators let us down.
How much longer will we let them stick around?
I know that change can take a while to flow
Wake up now friend and see who is the foe.

This sounds a bit angry, but maybe I am wrong. Now let;s see, what rhymes with bit? :)
