Pestilence!
By: Wayne Brown
In the sewers beneath our feet
Rats running free
Searchers of the night
Survivors of the dawn
Pestilence runs amok
Dope dealers dot our streets
Rats running free
Addictions they do sell
High life in a bag
Pestilence runs amok
In the high corporate towers
Rats running free
Twisters of the truth
Greed’s face in the sun
Pestilence runs amok
In the high places of government
Rats running free
Rampant spending of our assets
Liberty in jeopardy
Pestilence runs amok
Across our borders, illegal immigrants
Rats running free
Living off the public dole
No American want-to-be
Pestilence runs amok
In our hearts, creeping terrorist
Rats running free
Threatening lives, killing citizens
Suppressing a way of life
Pestilence runs amok
In the streets, apathetic citizens
Rats running free
Voting only their ignorance
No regard for being free
Pestilence runs amok
In our future, glorious leaders
Rats running out of town
Raising our hearts, our Flag
Restoring our patriotism
Pestilence overcome
