Hail to the Thief

(December 12, 2000 - January 20, 2009)

Chris Butler

Here’s the story of a man,
who shipped his people to a foreign land
to fight knee-deep in the sand,
just because naive locos think they can.

First came the day when Cronkite was reborn in Matt Lauer.
The man became a hero when outlaws brought down the towers,
in an attempt to bully the world’s only superpower
to put its tail between its’ legs and cower.

He was slow to take action,
developing a delayed reaction,
and even after he was informed by his faction,
he finished children’s stories to give him satisfaction.

Although he was never popularly elected,
he believed he was the one God selected,
so conservative ideology he resurrected
but the dots he never truly connected.

All those libelous lies,
that destroyed so many lives,
incited the Middle East into a bee hive
but JOIN UP and take the dive.

Because of a shit kickin’ cowboy claiming Crawford, Texas,
we now have to settle for stability at best,
but would he had relinquished his throne, been honest, or even confessed
if there was only three seconds left?
