America Please


Whose Broad Stripes and Bright Stars

America has made a mistake

Power to people who want to harm

Polution and Pain

Hate, Hate and Hate

 

America please listen

Children need school

They need books and teachers

Clean air and fresh water

Babies need peace

 

America listen now

Women need health care

They need birth control

Pregnancy is not preexisting

Abortion is not amoral

 

America stop talking

The earth needs our help

She is dying

She is dying

She is dying

Please

Stop

Now
