Society Always Falls
Our hearts have been carved with silver spoons
Slice, slice, carve away as they laugh, the goons
They cheese as they prosper, increasing our power
Meanwhile their smiles fail to hide their glower
Revenge is their motivation
Cut from the poor, making “us” a richer nation
After all, we were almost socialist
Who knows what could happen if we had lesser rich?
They say the middle is where they lie
“Middle! Middle!” they chant for the crowds that cry
“Yes! Yes! More! More!” They shout to the thieves
Not realizing their doom, ripping the hems off their sleeves
The flag is burning, and not in protest
Watch as the flames ingest what made us the best
Uneducated, downright pitiful
Oblivious clowns smiling against the oppositional
Infatuated with a guy so rad
“Oh! More!” They chant as he slices progress in half
“No, stop!” A goon cries, seeing through the ruse
“Oh, more!” His entourage shouts, goon feeling the blues
As he watches, helpless, afraid
Threatened by the very bed that he made
He smears on a smile and sits back
Securing a future before the head clown can attack
Our country tis’ of the
Sweet land of the brave, home of the free
Liberty falling to her knees in mercy
Pulled back by the goons, too artistic for the greed-thirsty
However, this too shall pass
Resilient, we always bounce back
After all, you know what makes us free?
The cries of Liberty as she leads us to victory
Chanting on the grass we planted, we will never be supplanted
After all, society always falls when you take us for granted
