Talk show host and political
pundits, propagandist for
‘The Man' standing on the
Sidelines with the Stars and
Stripes in hand.
Brave from a distance, far
from the battle ground ...
No commitment to sacrifice,
Cowardice abounds.
Soldiers fighting but
Unaware of the real reason
Why, at death's door they
May never awaken to the lie.
Tools of Imperialism ...
Blood in the sand ...
Blood on their hands ...
Citizen Soldiers like
Those they kill are victims
Of ‘The Man.'
Those who have the least ...
Fight to maintain the
Lifestyle of the Rich ...
Themselves never advancing
Or progressing an inch.
Leader of the free world
Commander and Thief'
Military deserter showing
The people of the
Earth no mercy or relief.
Brave from a distance far
From the battle ground ...
Coward in the White House,
Run him out of town.
The Commander and Thief
Through elections Change ...
The corrupt nature of the
System remains the same.
