Times New Roman
It's splashed in the press (all the ways of excess).
Witness the grey wedding bride in her fourth wedding dress
and her children at home being raised all alone
in the afternoon by a violent videogame drone.
What's become of US and that for which we used to stand?
All the exceptions have swallowed our rule.
These shifting values have made us anyone's fool.
This, "Do as I say and not as I do"
hypocrisy philosophy democracy is doomed.
The economy lists and the banks they break
when appetites can't pay for the feasts that they ate.
There's no pledge of allegiance or God in school.
Instead, now metal detectors are the teachers' tool.
What's become of US and that for which we used to stand?
All the exceptions have swallowed our rule.
These shifting values have made us anyone's fool.
This, "Do as I say and not as I do"
hypocrisy philosophy democracy is doomed.
