War, Incorporated

Author: Bill Roberts

– To the memory of the George W. Bush era

Let’s face it:

Our business

In this country

Is the business of war.

We make weapons,

We sell weapons,

We like to use weapons,

Keeping WMD hidden in reserve.

The stock market climbs,

The economy thrives,

Millionaires become billionaires -

All’s right with our world.

Our President knows

Who we are,

How we respond,

Our natural inclination.

We thrive on war,

Launch into one willingly.

Hell, who’s next?

Bring ‘em on!

Note: Just got nostalgic today for the good old days. Don’t you miss George Bush and his gang of terrorists? Naw, didn’t think so.
