The Pope is Dead !

Contributed by jyssvw on Tuesday, 26th April 2005 @ 02:51:06 PM in AEST
Topic: oops

The Filibuster voted down
The Pope has surely died
Vatican City overflows
The pilgrims and their pride

Iraqis scream and run
At the sight of U.S. bombs
The terrorists and their master plan
Laundering their deadly funds

Leaders of the free and oppressed
Delegate representation abroad
They carefully maintain their smiling face
Fearing being ousted as a fraud

Societies rapidly crumbling apart
Tribes killing off their own kind
The Rwandan and Sudanese killers
In a German state of mind

Genocide and Kristallnacht
Glass and corpses piling high
The Jews were the last to survive
Deserted, left their own ally

Evangelists and conservative values
The constitution never deceives
A separation of church and state
Never was truly achieved

Our founding fathers voice echoes
Turning in their deep dark graves
Pagan worshipers and innocent slaughters
Plot and wait their moment to be resaved

Coma ridden, feeding tubes
Ordered dismantled and removed
A hospice concedes turmoil
Judiciary discretion clearly abused

The senators take their lofty seats
High above their moral grounds
The diplomats shake the sweaty hands
Of traitors in their own towns

The radio waves scattered
The population intentionally misinformed
A campaign to win the lives
Of those who refused to conform

Nuclear proliferation
Treaties broken in trust
North Korea and Iran
An axis of deadly lust

On a small ranch in Crawford
Sits a short, stout man
Deliberate in his confusion
Rove and Rice couldn’t give a bigger damn

In the hopes of saving democracy
Row V. Wade is ignored
In a perpetual state of irony
Civil Rights become a reward

Bi-partisan politicians
Obediently heed their master’s call
We the people of this great world
Will suffer their spiraling downfall

From Sea to shining Sea
Built on the backs of Black slaves
In the land of the everlasting free
Our beds have finally been made
