I’ve Had Enough
I’ve had enough of living in a world where compassion is unheard,
Where free speech is called a form of terror,
Where peace seems absurd.
I’ve had enough of our land filled with hate,
Where almost 1,500 soldiers have met a bloody fate.
It’s American pie and all that’s in the mix,
With propaganda filling warmed up in a crock of bullshit,
A bit of ignorance as icing on top of the pie,
Seasoned with radical Christianity and now we all watch it rise…
Going over it’s boundaries and charring the pan,
Just as it’s doing to our fellow man.
Eat up little sheep and enjoy your small slice of pie,
Because Uncle Sam will soon cut off your hair and then watch you die.
Just like the sheep that you are, only now you have guns,
And you’re serving a monkey, oh it’s time to have fun.
Don’t worry bout AIDs or poverty or small pox,
Just glue yourself to bogus terror warnings that you’re watching on Fox.
Don’t worry about birth control or abortion or teen pregnancy rates,
We’ll just talk about abstinence and then overpopulate.
Keep an eye on what Muslims say under their breath,
But don’t worry bout the environment, just choke to death.
Don’t worry bout rusty arsenic water that your kids are drinkin,
Or the underfunded schools where they’re supposed to be thinkin’
Who says Johnny needs a book we’ll just give him some boots,
Then hand him a rifle and teach him to shoot.
Don’t worry bout Susie getting her masters degree,
Just give her a baby and a husband and don’t let her be free.
We’re all gonna go back to where abortion is a crime,
And soon people being stoned again, like Biblical times.
The ruler’s life is easier when his people don’t see,
When the nation turns fascist, who could disagree.
And when people question we’ll call on a priest,
Then say that God backs us and watch the havoc unleash.
And in the heat of sniper attacks coming out of a van,
We’ll show the terrorists we mean business by lifting the assault weapons ban.
Don’t worry bout the unemployed they’re really just slobs,
We’ll say we’ll give them work then give tax breaks for those outsourcing our jobs.
We’ll unravel the constitution while you all wave your flags,
You’ll bitch about divorce and lash out on the fags.
Not letting them get married to the person they love,
Because a few simple-minded hicks scared of what might be above.
It’s time to say we’re sickened by the pie,
That we don’t want our hair cut and we don’t want to die,
It’s time to hit the streets and pitch a big fit,
To say to the “President†we’ve had enough of his shit.
We want to make our country better,
And if a woman marries her girlfriend than it’s time that we let her.
That we don’t want your laws encouraged in Sunday school class,
That you can take your “American Standard Bible†and shove it right up your ass.
Because we won’t let you persecute us and then claim you’re being persecuted,
Nor let you make a world on how your preacher feels suited.
I’ll stand up to the right because I will get tough,
And say to their face I’VE HAD ENOUGH!
