Show Me Yours


Show me yours
And I'll show you mine
Where'd you put YOUR weapons
Of mass destruction?
Your [lying] mouth that tears holes into my heart
Like T-Rex chewing on Betsy the Cow
And Dick Cheney eating at our wallets
[Halliburton]
Show me yours
And I'll show you mine
What do you mean
I have to give you thirty dollars
For five dollars worth of groceries
In an economy that's so overblown
The world is just waiting to sweep up
The exploded pieces
Show me yours
And I'll show you mine
Give me some truth
And I might flirt with you
Just the way you like
With taxes and tariffs
And forced passport purchases
So I can return home
After I travel abroad
To my neighbor country
Show me yours
And I'll show you mine
Tease me with the promise of security
For a homeland that is
No more secure than it was
The day before the Towers fell
And the insurance company paid
That billion-plus dollar claim
Show me yours
...
On second thought,
Keep your panties on
Conceal yet another lie

This was a "flashback piece". Just thinking about our old line of work and current events that still affect good friends and family opened a can o' whoop-dat-trick!
