Special Delivery

I tried to go clean from protesting, but I'm a recidivist.

My government: behaving with unlimited wickedness.

In the interest of peace is how a liar wages war,

then clamors for more.

I wish we had elections every day,

wave the ballot in the air like a sign when I say

that democracy delivered by the bomb and the gun

is terror elsewhere on the world I'm from.

Do you cheer for the once-and-for-all of an enemy

whose hand our man don was on in '83

but who now exemplifies all evil?

That's what you get for shaking hands with people

who represent the vast and sinister interests of industry.

We protect the free trade world, so don't dare try to stop us.

We deliver them bullets and sell them their coffins.

And I wish that I could afford the ear of Bush the Second
