Veteran's Day

Shout out to the military, it ain't yaw fault
Money buys agendas and it pays to be the boss
Talented individuals
That the world has lost
Feels like we're scratching the surface of a third holocaust
Setting myself up for the new and improved Patriot Act
Just doing my part to get us back on track
Continue to pray for a peaceful world as I sip on my Pabst
As paranoia sets in on our pool of thought lap after lap
2000 party over oops out of our minds
The least we can do is be kind
The way things are headed we're just biding time
Speech is overrated
But I appreciate the freedom
Trying not to judge books by their cover
Cause that's the sign of a heathen.
