though reticent to represent
they wave as their beloved republic bleeds
the victim of insatiable greed
criminal acts dressed up in the flag
so no one can disagree
then went crack the camel's back
it started out in front of the capitol
a hundred coming down from their flag poles
it'd gotten so bad even blue white and red
refused to take it anymore
american flags are hunting the fortunate sons,
to swallow them up
and bury them deep into the ground
present tense the president
is calling for diplomacy or a truce
a dozen more are filling the room
now down on his knees, "lord, they're coming for me
for doing what you told me to"
