Lyrics by Wilton. Music by Powell and Wilton. Arranged by Dwarf Nebula.

He said he had come forth to unite America
Idiot clone of king maker who once tried his crown
He’d just lacked the mandate from the people
Where do you suppose a thing like that can be found?

Daddy’s good ‘ol boys had ensured his oval seat
Just as sure they had toppled Camelot
Blew out a ring of smoke as big as Texas
And The Partisan Court obscured the family plot

“We’re gonna need someone we can call evil…
An’ a lie so big none would believe the truth”
“We’ll stage it live; broadcast the wide world over…
So there’ll be no doubt once we create the proof”

Chorus:

Time to trot out ‘ol glory. Give ‘er another spin around the block
It’s a knee jerk chain reaction caused by collective system shock
Yes, we’ve gotta drag out ‘ol glory, though she’s tatterin’ in the breeze
Fly it for all the freedoms we give up to fill our SUVs

Time was, God blessed our country without provocation
It was the home of the brave and the land of the free
Today’s democracy doesn’t need participation
Now that we’ve finally gotten our empty TV

“The people don’t really know what is best for them…
They interfere with the smooth running of the state”
One hundred million dollars worth of ass-kissing
This is what you buy with every candidate

“To protect our, I mean, American interests…
We have to lie and steal and maim and kill”
But there’s nowhere now on Earth that is safe from US
If we will blindly swallow this bitter pill

(Chorus)
