Nothing to Steal Here

 you have fifteen minutes to disperse ... abandon your beliefs and nobody will get hurt • the generation branded with an x ... splattered with the color of the brains few expects

a cavalcade of lincoln kennedys ... a Texas circumcision cutting clear up to the knees • the widow knowing there’s another bride ... with a faith unseen still remaining by his side

a boot in the stirrup looking back ... marches forth not knowing if the country’s under attack • often blamed for a cancelled culture ... gathering its foes like a pack of well fed vultures

if security is welcome and obeyed ... no one is stepping up when the final score is played • and still the Earth can never claim its fate ... only those in love are allowed to render hate

the theme of recreation and their parks ... like a hundred flies glowing in a restless dark • our nightmares are rated ex and are ... for it matters not where we’ve been but where we are

so send your children back to bed ... the riot gear of wishes gets them shot in the head • the most wonderful time of the year ... won’t accept the credit line of our fiscal fears

she said she exists ... absent of peppermint twists ... a witness to no shame ... leaving me out of her game

she won’t make herself known ... too late to be fully grown • forever will I let her be ... a way

will she ever reach out ... or remain beyond ear shout • was does she see in me ... I’ve no written guarantee

to the boy who spoke in class ... everything that’s clear is made of glass •  no intrepid none intrude ... sentenced to those who are rude

sentenced to thirty days ... without being told to go away • took him twenty nine ... to learn she was never mine

now the country up in arms ... lacking all the lucky charms • growing hostile towards vaccines ... with inferior blue genes

what can they expect ... eminent dreamers wrecked • pulling over to the side ... a grand combover covers pride

standing up to upper class ... sitting down to let us pass • kneeling on one bloody knee ... a right exclusive to the free

taking charge upon the drained ... curiosity has waned • comes a time to close the hearse ... with fifteen minutes to disperse
