Story behind the song
Jusgt being the Paul Revere warning of troubles ahead!
Lyrics
WE HAVE OUR BRAVE SOLDIERS ON FOREIGN SOIL
AND THEY ARE BEING HUNG OUT TO DRY
A PUBLIC AWARENESS BEING FED TO US
IS BUILT ON OUTRIGHT LIES
AMERICAN BUSINESSES ARE BEING SCREWED
AND THEY STRUGGLE TO SURVIVE
AS POLITICAL TORPEDOES ARE AIMED AT THEM
AS THEY SINK THE ENT ER PRISE
WHERE’S INTEGRITY
WHAT’S HAPPENED TO PRIDE
WHEN SO MANY ABLE BODIED PEOPLE
ARE OUT FOR A FREE RIDE
NO ONE SEEMS TO CARE
NO ONE WILL TAKE THE BLAME
I’M SURPRISED THAT LADY LIBERTY
DOESN’T HANG HER HEAD IN SHAME
EVERY POLITICIAN IS ON THE TAKE
AND THEIR POCKETS BEING LINED WITH GOLD
SUPPLIED BY A TRAITOROUS LOBBY GROUP
WITH A LOCK GRIP STRANGLEHOLD
ONE HAND IS OUT AND THE OTHER IS TAKIN
I GUESS JUDAS IS STILL ALIVE
FOR JUST A FEW PIECES OF SILVER
GRAFT IS CHEAP TO BUY
(CHORUS)
BRIDGE................
WE HAVE ELECTIONS
BROTHER WHAT A JOKE
THE ENTIRE FREAKING GOVERNMENT
IS MIRRORS AND SMOKE
PROMISES...PROMISES
NO ONE’S GOING TO KEEP
BUT DON’T YOU WORRY
THEY’RE NOT LOSING ANY SLEEP
