the skies crackle tonight with man-made stars
glittering red, white and blue independence from what
sodium, magnesium, copper and gold
bricks stashed in the fed waiting for big business to
ask for more here they are Mr. CEO thanks
anytime we cheer for independence from what
our freedom and lives lost in Iraq and Afghanistan
for cheap gas and petroleum cum corn fast food
celebrations over BBQ pits, PBR and the right to
vote for another tax cut so we can rouse ourselves
at night from our campsite, pack up the tent
with the gates swinging shut behind us.
Just another day to celebrate American democracy at work.
