The American Sentencing
Rain that melts the snow away in early May will never go away.
Seems like that for several days here in March we've lost our ozone layer.
"Big Deal" says the taxi-man in the big city with the fat wallet.
Fat oil says, fat oil says, fat oil says, fat oil says goodnight.
Eat green, eat fresh, eat lithium, just don't try to drink the tritium.
High tide in the hackensack as the moon smiles down on the mosquitoes.
Big daddy stepping on the little man again d.t.v. no good.
Big daddy stepping on the little man there's no healthcare. Just say die.
This year we can make believe there is health care. Temperature, pulse, blood pressure.
That is all they do for you for those on medicare and medicaid I swear.
Come back in ninety days we'll do it all over again. Foot bleeding
It's probably fine, soak it in hot water or you could see a doctor.
But you have to go to the e.r., then you wait for a specialist.
This way they can charge for the higher rate the insurance can't cover.
And that is what caused all those states to be bankrupt. American Ulcers.
But the people who give half their pay to get insurance get to live.
