ON A SOAPBOX

Today the bandwagon rolled into town
Stocked with soapboxes and heads held high
A town full of goosteppers gathered around
Trading their souls for spoon fed lies.

Ch. Fool on a soapbox colored red, white and blue
Liar from the movie house is leading salutes
This cardboard cutout is sidestepping the truth
Fool on a soapbox – red, white and blue

Someone wrapped Jesus in the flag
And stuck him on a one dollar bill
In God We Trust in the name of lust
In exchange for our own free will

Ch.

Flags fly on crosses on American lawns
Fly crooked red, white and blue
I don’t care about the boulder on your shoulder
I just want you to stand inside my shoes

Ch.
