LAST NIGHT

last night


Last night the music stopped
the crowd hushed and mad men danced
Last night lights dimmed while truth burned
and elephants tripped the fantastic lie
Last night I felt the world go hungry
as we were fed scraps of white bread
Last night I felt cheated, depleated
as the red team scored the goal
Last night the have's duped us all
with Christian values without Christ
Last night Halliburton picked up the tab
while soldiers did the bidding and dying
Last night 1461 days of Bushism's lay ahead
as all must suffer the arrogance and greed.
Last night I had hoped for a different ending
yet here I am wanting the music to start again.
