A Timeless Response To Current Events

(album: Cash Cabin Sessions, Vol. 3 - 2019)

Good evening, friends and neighbors
Or shall is say this after noon?

It would behoove me audaciously
At this juncture in our compilation
To officially declare this congregation
The single largest amalgamation
Of any one particular nation's
Population to ever receive an invitation
To a situation of such enduring magnitude
Forthwith and notwithstanding
Any misunderstood grandstanding
As it would pertain to the expansion
Of our national tantrum
In such a grand and or irrational fashion
That I would implore you to explore
A more tangible interpretation
Of our national anthem the likes of which
We could plausibly take platinum
If you would turn with me in your hymnals
To the book of verbatim, of botherations ad nauseam
Ain't that some bullshit?

Ain't that some bullshit
Ain't that some bullshit
Ain't that some bullshit
Ain't that some bullshit

When you allow good men to die for your freedom
Only later to recall them as having fought for your flag
That's some bullshit

Henceforth, fourscore and way to many more years
Before the last first responder ever forgot
To remember seven eleven untoward
A more perfect reunion of our most effervescent endeavor
To linger here forever with or without
The expressed written consent
Of any nationally resented softball leagues
Best politically motivated pre-conditioned intentions
To lure your children away from these lives of crime
That they are leading out on these streets
And lead them to lives of crime that would take place indoors
Lives of collusion the likes of which
This world has never seen before
Depending on what your definition of the word is is
Ain't that some bullshit?

Ain't that some bullshit
Ain't that some bullshit
Ain't that some bullshit
Ain't that some bullshit
I say read my lips and I will show you my taxes
And by that I meant to say that if I am elected
I never said any of that shit
