Slaughter Speech

Hi.. Just a note before you read this. It's actually the lyrics in a song I wrote for a band I am working with, and it has music and stuff to go with it... Its kind of meant to be sung in a specific way too. I just hope you like the lyrics :P

---------------------------------

SLAUGHTER SPEECH

A nice dripping pistol of scarlet, please;
Prepaid, premade, processed, precleaned.
Wrapped in plastic, dressed in black:
Big man Mr President ordered that.

Jesus shot me with an M16
Cloaked in a shroud of stars and stripes.
Six billion civilians, so many Gods
Instead, flags of red, blue and white.

THE PRESIDENT'S CIRCUS
Good evening,
Mister U-S-A!
THE PRESIDENT'S CIRCUS
Good evening,
Mister U-S-A!
RINGLEADER OF THIS CRAZY HOUSE
Asks you to sit back, enjoy the show!

(I ran away...)
To the world of blood-and-bone---
Picked-my-teeth with a splint-erred heart
Sucking gristle, I Wis-per-ed, Sir, this is not-my-home.

[BRIDGE]

A grenade fell down my chimney
On my favorite night of the year
I did not wonder where it came from,
Uncle Sam is always near.

[BRIDGE]

The ringleader told you silence
The ringleader has to think.
The lions are loose
The guns are out.
Do you think the tent walls are thick?

THE PRESIDENT'S CIRCUS
Good evening,
Mister U-S-A!
THE PRESIDENT'S CIRCUS
Good evening,
Mister U-S-A!
RINGLEADER OF THIS CRAZY HOUSE
Asks you to sit back, enjoy the show!

***Thanks for reading. :) Just keep in mind that it is a SONG, not really a poem...
