Just sayin'.
The USA has many good reasons to be proud. But our
arrogance keeps getting us in trouble. We could use some moderation and humility.

American Blues 2:57
American Blues 2012
We're cutting down the timber,
We're running out of trees.
We're greedy mother truckers,
And we do what we please. (We do what we please)
We ran off all the injuns, when they got in our way.
Sanctified by Jesus, we taught the primitives to pray.
(Taught the primitives to pray)
Don't get trampled at the Wal-Mart
Black Friday Christmas sale;
And don't forget your food stamps;
You've got a tiger by the tail.
Now the machines have taken over,
Accelerating to the end.
We're proud owners of a legacy,
Impossible to defend.
We like to brag about our freedom,
While we subjugate the poor.
Might not be a pretty picture,
What the future's got in store.
(What the future's got it store)
Got the American blues.
