Heresy
by Al JensenThis facade of governing with
glory
of patriots and men of state
is nothing short of fantastic
story
American public so sedate
no one sees through dressed up
lies
through falsehoods woven fine
all we care for are freedom
fries,
patriotism, and boycotting French wine
a war is here and you don't
see
through trickery and charm
the terrorist is him not me
he is
causing all the harm
he cuts the taxes, hurts the masses
while the poor
all stand in line
they're sprinkling their children's ashes
while the rich
all wine and dine
he lies about a tragedy
that
took 3000 lives
executing master strategy
at the expense of those husbands
and wives
he goes to war for gasoline
but not for noble cause
accuses
me of heresy
while its he who really lost
he cannot tolerate a persons
need
to marriage or their life
he thinks of only conservative creed
not
man and man, or wife and wife
he cannot see a reason
to let a mother
choose
he considers it a terrible treason
although the life is hers to
lose
American voter don't you see
the
time is very right
you can make us all so free
we won’t silence without a
fight!
