It's a Shame

It’s a shame
It’s a shame
It’s a shame
Not sure who’s to blame

30 men on a chopper
Hugging the ridge flying low
Done this mission countless time
How many they don’t know
Rocket launching terrorist
Gets off a luck shot
Didn’t have the time to think
Before it all got hot and it’s a shame

It’s a shame
It’s a shame
Not sure who’s to blame

People over here stateside
Battling the budget
Trying to get the bills paid
One side wasn’t budging
They were trying to make a point
Trying to win the day
But no rocket launchers
Were pointing their way and it’s a shame

It’s a shame
It’s a shame
Not sure who’s to blame

My mind’s a little muddled now
Thinking ‘bout this or the other
Not sure which party to vote for
This one or another
Wishing there were a candidate
With no affiliation
Only thing they’d want to do
Would be to fix this broken nation that’s a shame

It’s a shame
It’s a shame
Not sure who’s to blame

Don’t want to vote for the guy I put there
But the other guy’s no better
Following their party lines
For our nation of debtors
Pretty soon we’ll be outsourced
Owned by other nations
Who’ll foreclose on the White House
And the house of misrepresentation and it’s a shame

It’s a shame
It’s a shame
Not sure who’s to blame
