about

A protest song of sorts, chronicling my growing disillusionment with the Evangelical Church and their marriage to one Donald J Trump.

lyrics

I saw a preacher screaming on the TV
He said there's a conspiracy
He said a lot of things, but none of them fly,
Does anybody question? None of them try,
'Cause he's workin em down into a feverish pitch,
And they've all bought in to the bait and switch
Now the vicious cycle realized, the infantry mobilized
To spread the bent news across the land
The Nation of Self-Condemn

Shift aside this moment...
What is truth and what is lie?
So hard to see the tragedies
With all these planks in our eye

I saw senator talkin on the TV
He said there's a conspiracy
He's got two fingers and they both point left
Gotta misdirect to complete the theft
Of the poor and the lame and the veteran too,
What you really thought that they care about you?
No the coffers are full and the dues are paid,
The constituents have all been played
He claims his party has blessing divine,
Then kisses the ring of the King of Lies!

Shift aside this moment...
What is truth and what is lie?
So hard to see the tragedies
With all these planks in our eye

What have we become?
A blight upon this land...
What have we become?
Our house is made of sand
What have we become?
A house divided cannot stand
