Makeshift Patriot

The Flag Shop Is Out Of Stock

Hang Myself...Half Mast



Makeshift Patriot

The Flag Shop is Out of Stock

I hang myself...via live telecast



Coming live from my own funeral...the beautiful weather offered a nice shine

Which is suitable for a full view of a forever altered skyline

It`s times like these I freestyle biased opinions every other sentence

My journalistic ethics slip when I pass them off as objective

"Don`t gimme that ethical shit."

I`ve got exclusive, explicit images to present to impressionable American kids

And it`s time to show this world how big our edifice is!



That`s exactly what they attacked when a typically dark skinned Disney villain

Used civilians against civilians and charged the trojan horses into our buildings

Using commercial aviation as instruments of destruction

Pregnant women couldn`t protect their children

Wheelchairs were stairway obstructions

Now I have to back petal...from the shower of glass and metal

Wondering how after it settles we`ll find who provided power to radical rebels

The Melting Pot seems to be calling the kettle black when it boils over

But only on our own soil so the little boy holds a toy soldier..

And waits for the suit and tie to come home. We won`t wait `til he`s older

Before we destroy hopes for a colder war to end

"Now get a close up of his head..."



Makeshift Patriot

The Flag Shop Is Out Of Stock

Hang Myself...Half Mast



Makeshift Patriot

The Flag Shop is Out of Stock

I hang myself while the stock markets crash



The city is covered in inches of muck

I see some other pictures of victims are up

Grieving mothers are thinking their children are stuck

Leaping lovers are making decisions to jump

While holding hands...to escape the brutal heat

Sometimes in groups of the three

The fall out goes far beyond the toxic cloud where people look like debris

But all they saw after all was said...beyond the talking heads

Was bloody dust with legs looking like the walking dead calling for meds

Hospitals are overwhelmed. volunteers need to go the hell home

Moments of silence for fire fighters were interupted by cell phones

Who`s going to make that call to increase an unknown death toll?

It`s the one we rally behind

He`s got a megaphone...and he`s promising to make heads roll

So we cheer him on, but asbestos is affecting our breath control

The less we know...the more they fabricate...the easier it is to sell souls

An addictive 24 hour candle light vigil in TV`s

Freedom WILL be defended...at the cost of civil liberties

Viewers are glued to television screens

Stuck... cause lots of things seem too sick

I use opportunities to pluck heart strings for theme music



I`ll show you which culture to punp your fist at and what foot is right to kiss

We don`t know who the culprit is yet...but he looks like this

We know who the heros are. Not the xenophobes who act hard

"We taught that dog to squat.

How dare he do that shit in our own back yard!"



They happened to scar our financial state and char our landscape

Can you count how many times so far I ran back this same damn tape?

While a camera man creates news and shoves it down our throats on the West Bank

With a 10 second clip put on constant loop to provoke US angst



So get your tanks and load your guns and hold your sons in a family huddle

Because even if we win this tug of war and even the score...humanity struggles

There`s a desperate need of blood for what`s been uncovered under the rubble

Some of them dug for answers in the mess...but the rest were looking for trouble



Makeshift Patriot

The Flag Shop Is Out Of Stock

Hang Myself...Half Mast



Makeshift Patriot

The Flag Shop is Out of Stock

I hang myself, don`t waive your rights with your flags
