AMERICA: MYTH AND REALITY

There are myths told daily
Shouldnt we call them lies?
These self-serving myths
Shield you from our cries
America does only selfless good!
America means so well!
We dont do it for us!
Its for you! Cant you tell?
Our politicians are saints
They are doing of their best
Theres nothing in it for them
Theyre better than the rest...
We only want to bring a benefit
the way wonderful America runs
But not prostitution, corruption or mafia
And not the sleaze, the drugs or guns
No, not paedophile priests or casinos
Not militias or the KKK
Not health care only for the rich
Not cults or killers in any way
Just all the other stuff
to make you fat as any cow
Well fill your head with product
And shallow TV chow
You can choke your skies with smog
And join our big fat rat race
Bigger is better in every way
Learn how to feed your face
Destroy the world like WE do
Consume its every treasure
Then well have made you happy
You can die then..., at your leisure
But we only do it for your good
Cant you see were really pure?
We can really change YOUR ways
'cause America has the 'CURE'! :?
O/
(U.S. fantasy and myth,
corruption and ugly sleaze
contain such self-deception & arrogance
Tol bring our world to its knees)

| A great write, comparable to Michael Moore's works. It's good that people now see the light: all government is evil. |
