20 years ago American Army
Invaded Iraq to find WMD
For some reason, they couldn’t locate any
Finding non-existing bombs wasn’t that easy
Well, they have stayed anyway
They’ve been doing it to this day
Rather than sticking with the actual
They fell for “the counterfactual”
That way, I guess, they were able to protect
World peace and the home democracy, intact
Who cares if Iraqi death-toll already reached millions
We have bigger problems, like a handful of DC bullies
Everything else is under control
That of course is inclusive of petrol
I see that there is no such thing as an innocent government
But with White-House? All hunger-games and manhunt
I, by the way, am ready to hear any counter-views
As long as the truth is what your word pursues
Unless someone objects any of the above
Can I use my turn to get real mad now?
I hope we all know by now that American People and American Government are two seperate stories. I truly, utterly hate politics. However; when you look around, see all the damage, it is really hard not to talk about politics. All I can hope is that I was able to express that nuance (as in between people and the government) well.
