The shining beacon on a hill
Blood and black stained hundred dollar bill
Hopes and dreams of a generation
Fought for freedom and embraced abdication
Six hundred thousand standing at the gate
The ultimate price paid to separate
Once a union proud and grateful
Now a corporation, fraudulent and hateful
Money wolf deceiver salivates and sinks in claw
Stolen printing press of green, now master of law
Wolfs and oligarchs aspire to potentates
In caves secret agendas expand and proliferate
Peace is war and imperialism preached
Lizard tongue on podium recites keynote speech
Look, the voting sheep throng and congregate
Mass ignorance cultivates, despotism accelerates
Civics and enlightened thought, once a citizen's goal
Now Bachelorette, celebrity gossip and the super bowl
“If a nation expects to be ignorant and free . . .
it expects what never was and never will be”
