A challenge for all Bush-Haters

I hang myself...via live telecast

Coming live from my own funeral...the beautiful weather offered a nice shine
Which is suitable for a full view of a forever altered skyline
It's times like these I freestyle biased opinions every other sentence
My journalistic ethics slip when I pass them off as objective
"Don't gimme that ethical shit."
I've got exclusive, explicit images to present to impressionable American kids
And it's time to show this world how big our edifice is!

That's exactly what they attacked when a typically dark skinned Disney villain
Used civilians against civilians and charged the trojan horses into our buildings
Using commercial aviation as instruments of destruction
Pregnant women couldn't protect their children
Wheelchairs were stairway obstructions
Now I have to back petal...from the shower of glass and metal
Wondering how after it settles we'll find who provided power to radical rebels
The Melting Pot seems to be calling the kettle black when it boils over
But only on our own soil so the little boy holds a toy soldier..
And waits for the suit and tie to come home. We won't wait 'til he's older
Before we destroy hopes for a colder war to end
"Now get a close up of his head..."

I hang myself while the stock markets crash

The city is covered in inches of muck
I see some other pictures of victims are up
Grieving mothers are thinking their children are stuck
Leaping lovers are making decisions to jump
While holding hands...to escape the brutal heat
Sometimes in groups of the three
The fall out goes far beyond the toxic cloud where people look like debris
But all they saw after all was said...beyond the talking heads
Was bloody dust with legs looking like the walking dead calling for meds
Hospitals are overwhelmed. volunteers need to go the hell home
Moments of silence for fire fighters were interupted by cell phones
Who's going to make that call to increase an unknown death toll?
It's the one we rally behind
He's got a megaphone...and he's promising to make heads roll
So we cheer him on, but asbestos is affecting our breath control
The less we know...the more they fabricate...the easier it is to sell souls
We're sellin addictive 24 hour candle light vigils in TV's
Freedom WILL be defended...at the cost of civil liberties
Viewers are glued to television screens
Stuck... cause lots of things seem too sick
I use opportunities to pluck heart strings for theme music

I'll show you which culture to punp your fist at and what foot is right to kiss
We don't know who the culprit is yet...but he looks like this
We know who the heros are. Not the xenophobes who act hard
"We taught that dog to squat.
How dare he do that shit in our own back yard!"

They happened to scar our financial state and char our landscape
Can you count how many times so far I ran back this same damn tape?
While a camera man creates news and shoves it down our throats on the West Bank
With a 10 second clip put on constant loop to provoke US angst

So get your tanks and load your guns and hold your sons in a family huddle
Because even if we win this tug of war and even the score...humanity struggles
There's a desperate need of blood for what's been uncovered under the rubble
Some of them dug for answers in the mess...but the rest were looking for trouble

Wow!

Did you write that yourself, slothrop, because I liked it very much.
Even if you didn't write it I liked it very much. I just want to give
credit to the author.

[Horab Fibslager]

I don't think there's ever been a military that was good at being a doctor. It kind of goes against the purpose for which they were created in the first place. Which is to be the most effective killing machine possible.

jack the ripper was  a military doctor.

at least according to hollywood, and if i learned in anything in highschool it was that movies never lie, at least judging by the frequency of their presentation in classes...

[East Coast Hustle]

Slothrop didn't write that...it's a Sage Francis song...one of my favorites...

[East Coast Hustle]

you've got one too many esses in there, gnimbley....

[slothrop23]

indeed it is sage, hes also the bloke who wrote the tag im using. possibly the best writer ever. other favorites are the specialist,cafe girl,you ain,t got no style by non-prophets(sage francis and jo beats) but all is worth listening to.

[East Coast Hustle]

yeah, Sage is tight...if you dig him, you oughtta check out Atmosphere, Sole, DoseOne, Aceyalone, SixToo, and Blue Scholars...

[slothrop23]

not to mention buck 65,listner,mummy fortuna theatre company.  if you have a super fast connection go to www.thetastates.com as a man has compiled all this for you

[East Coast Hustle]

ooh! new stuff!

I haven't heard of any of those...much thanks!

[slothrop23]

not a problem, i also recommend boards of canada, aesoep rock, but you can find all that

[Lurker]

Well all I can say is every time a U.S. President has made the war cry, or even strong rhetoric for that matter, since WWII there has been an outcry from many in the world that America is out of control and trying to cause a nuclear war and blah blah blah...

You seem to be as dumb as your hero.

You live in a red state, right?

[Voice of Truth]

Yes I do.  Jealous, I see.  Sorry, about your luck...

[Bob the Mediocre]

Wow, such a witty reply. I can't say anything to that.

Is your sense of sarcasm as bad as you've accused ours of being?
