You are sicker in blue
With glaring white and red stripes
Pearl stars break your hue
Cannot trust your wavy moves
And the crowd lingers on
The sparks in the sky
Light up your lives in song
Indifferent and not asking "why?"
Shout a clouded slogan
For you, the everyman
Yet you are not privy to
The psychopathic demands
A heretic collects a rock
And you de-stock it in shock
Pepper havens to slow them down
And you abuse that every day
I can't feel your peace
Keeping us on a tight leash
For the good of the folks
And no one sings folk
Must you shelve your goods
Extracted from once pristine woods?
Friendly neighbors are aside
Whom you cast aside like trash
I could only hope for you all
All this will be in sing-song
I'll make amends for you all
Some of you live lives so strong
Earn your welcome to gain a gift
A gift of none of your home's squalor
Yet this could cause a widening rift
Among the hawks who claim valor
You are still sicker in blue
With glaring white and red stripes
Pearl stars break your hue
And we cannot trust your wavy moves
You have felt a comforting dream
One that will soon break at the seams
And the red, white, and blue icon
Will fade and lives will carry on
