i wrote this because i was pissed about how all the beach shops and stuff were all selling american flag shit to exploit it. it would be cool if they donated that money to charities and stuff, but they just keep it for themselves and it pisses me the fuck off.


“Red, white, and blue” was a passing trend
When the fabric of our flag became a fashion statement.
You planted deep the roots of your money tree
In the heart of New York city
fools rush to buy in
and you’re cashing in
is this the American dream?

“Red, white, and blue” make an ugly shade of green
when the part-time patriots arrive at the scene
wearing their pins like they’re proud of something they did
by buying in to whatever they’re fed
the wars on tv are just home entertainment
so it back and enjoy the show
in fact… why not watch it one more time?
Watch the city fall
You can never be too sure.
