hell is hot       who
left america open

someone on my phone was
telling me about an apocalypse and
time, we have no time left

tonight

there are no more people jumping
out of buildings
no reporter news flailing
no hot dog stands standing
what ground do we walk on

how do you get satisfaction
is it for your greater good
the city is bleeding while
afghanistan's streets are dancing
passing out candy to its children

but now karma has drawn
flames into the black of
your sky   line

and all i want to know is

where's my fucking candy now

where's my country
sweet land of liberty see
liberty running to his
omaha bunker   like
the little squirrel he is

what you got to say to me, mister

your words are just a
fixer-upper
that i don't want right now

tell me what you're gonna do
never thought being president
was so much work

are we looking for retaliation or are we
watching the light of our televisions      just to see you
fumble over another sentence
