IMPEACHMENT IS TOO GOOD FOR THEM
CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE
GOTTA MAKE SURE THESE ARE THERE LAST THROES
IMPEACHMENT IS A LITTLE BIT QUAINT
CAN WE REALLY HAVE THAT MUCH SELF RESTRAINT?
HOW ‘BOUT A CELL IN SUNNY GUANTANAMO?

IT ALL BEGAN IN FLORIDA
WHEN THE VOTE WAS ROBBED
JOHN BOLTON AND JOHN ROBERTS IN THE MOB
WAS THAT TEMPERAMENT OR DIPLOMACY?
IT’S ON VIDEO, YOU ALL CAN SEE
THEY ARE BULLIES, AND THAT’S HOW THEY GOT JOBS

AFTER THE STOLEN TERM BEGAN
WE WERE ATTACKED BY SAUDI-ARABIANS
WHY DID THE AIR FORCE DISAPPEAR?
DID THEY KNOW IN ADVANCE?
YOU SAW BUSH AND BANDAR DO THEIR DANCE
MAYBE THE TRUTH IS JUST TOO HARD TO BEAR

SO WE INVADED AFGHANISTAN
AND PUT AN OILMAN IN CHARGE
KARZI IS UNOCAL ON THE GROUND
THEY LET OSAMA SLIP AWAY
THEY WEREN’T GONNA MAKE THE SAUDIS PAY
NEXT THING YOU KNOW WE’RE BAGHDAD BOUND

“THIS IS WRONG” PAT TILLMAN SAID
AND HE GETS THREE BULLETS IN HIS HEAD
“IN A TIME OF WAR WE CANNOT HAVE DISSENT
WE GOTTA NIP IT IN THE BUD BEFORE IT GROWS”
IT’S LIKE SOMETHING EVERY SAUDI KNOWS
CAN’T LET THE CAMEL POKE ITS NOSE INSIDE THE TENT

GONZALES USED TORTURE TO MAKE THE CASE
THAT THEY WERE A WHOLE NEW MASTER RACE
CHENEY FORCED THE AGENCY TO ITS KNEES
BUSH JUST SMIRKS, HIS BRAIN IS FRIED
IMPEACHMENT IS JUST TOO DIGNIFIED
AND ROBERTS IS THE FRUIT OF THE POISONED TREE

THEY COPY YOUR EMAIL AND TAP YOUR PHONES
READ YOUR LETTERS AND CRASH YOUR HOMES
THE BILL OF RIGHTS LIES SHREDDED ON THE FLOOR
BETTER NOT HAVE ANY SECRETS TO HIDE
OR YOU’LL BE TAKEN ON A PERMANENT RIDE
THEY’LL SAY “ANYTHING GOES IN A TIME OF WAR”……BREAK

WITH MORE THAN A MILLION PEOPLE DEAD
AMERICA STARTS TO HANG ITS HEAD
THE BITTER TRUTH HAS BEEN REALIZED
WE GOTTA RUN THESE BASTARDS OUT OF TOWN
TAR AND FEATHERS ALL AROUND
IMPEACHMENT IS JUST TOO CIVILIZED……………….REFRAIN

Seven long, endless years.

Hard to believe that any of us are still able to hold our heads up. Two stolen, manipulated elections...the looting of the treasury...invasion of our privacy... incompetence at every level of government... disrespect for the health of our planet...ignoring the Geneva Conventions...an immoral, illegal war based on lies in which some estimates calculate a million people, most of them completely innocent, have died. Lies, and more lies. Torture and humiliation...unspeakable, and yet practiced by this utterly base criminal organization masquerading as a political administration.

We're all worn out and worn down by scandals and subterfuge. There is a wistful longing for the way we used to think of ourselves as a nation. We can only hope that people around the world who think we've lost our collective mind as a bullying giant understand that we have been taken hostage by maniacs.

Although some of us have managed to keep going, most of us are worried about what the future holds. These monumentally irresponsible people have essentially ruined just about everything.

Let's face it: we've been under siege.

But Papa Dish keeps on telling the story. In this song, Papa pulls together many of the threads that reveal the dissolution of free speech, the murder of a soldier for speaking the truth, the ascension to the Supreme Court of one of the Florida vote thugs...quite a reward for a few days of coercive actions. Papa Dish keeps telling the story.

If we ever forget, that's when we're really in trouble.
