When we do it, it can't be a crime;
when they do it, they're all evil men.
We're the ones who will win every time
(Excluding Vietnam which won't occur again).
So one bad man's dead, you should not rebuke
for one way trips to Gitmo are just fine;
we know our hypocrisy just makes you puke,
and we don't care however much you whine.
Only a traitor would call this act dumb,
for we know best and we know we will win;
to all humanity we've become numb,
and we can't tell the virtue from the sin.
It's good we hanged him, now he can't conspire
as we sink ourselves deeper in the mire.

the calm rain marks the dying of the year
with dying light to complement and show
that somewhere beyond the sky's pale glow
are places where the light is very clear
but right now when we hold each other dear
and seek in dreams the future times to know
the music in our hearts has time to grow
and these are moments full of praise and cheer
we won't need drama nor any great noise
to show how change continues without pause
or give us reason to announce this stage
completed and what's coming needs a voice
to speak its words and announce its just laws
for now we smile and meekly turn the page

no one has seen the light of future days
that hasn't stopped any prognostication
not one that requires the least deliberation
those are our cultures interesting ways
who cares if one man many others slays
as long as he can claim to be the nation
or provide some other fatuous declaration
we won't care in the least about what he says
these are the facts and that we think is that
there's no reason for anyone's complaint
compliance is the way to satisfaction
and put that way the bloody world is flat
for us though others may see a taint
it's just the normal stupid interaction
