John, John, John, |
you’ve got your priorities all wrong. |
While men fly airplanes into skyscrapers, |
dive bomb the pentagon, |
while they stick explosives into their shoes, |
and then book a seat right next to us, |
while they hide knives in their luggage, |
steal kids on school buses, |
take little girls from their beds at night |
drive trucks into our state capital buildings, |
while our president calls dangerous men all over the
world |
evildoers and devils, |
while we live in the threat of biological warfare, |
nuclear destruction, |
annihilation, |
you are out buying yardage |
to save Americans |
from the appalling |
alarming, abominable |
aluminum alloy of evil, |
that terrible ten foot tin tittie. |
You might not be able to find Bin Laden |
But you sure as hell found the hooter in the hall of
justice. |
|
It’s not that we aren’t grateful |
But while we were begging the women of Afghanistan |
To not cover up their faces |
You are begging your staff members to |
Just cover up that nipple |
To save the American people |
From that monstrous metal mammary |
How can we ever thank you? |
|
So, in your office every morning |
in your secret prayer meeting. |
while an American woman is sexually assaulted every
6 seconds |
while anthrax floats around the post office |
and settles in the chest of senior citizens, |
you’ve got another chest on your mind. |
While American sons arrive home in body bags |
and heat seeking missiles |
fly around a foreign country |
looking for any warm body |
you think of another body. |
And you pray for the biggest bra in the world John |
because you see that breast on the spirit of justice |
in the spirit of your |
own inhibited sexuality. |
And when we women see |
our grandmothers, our mothers, our daughters, our
granddaughters, |
our sisters, ourselves, |
when we women see that |
statue the spirit of justice |
we see the spirit of strength |
the spirit of survival. |
While every day |
we view innocent bodies dragged out of rubble |
and women and children laid out |
like thin limp dolls |
and baptized into death as collateral damage |
and the hollow eyed Afghani mother’s milk has dried |
up underneath her burka |
in famine in shame |
and her children are dead at her breast. |
|
While you look at that breast John |
that jug on the spirit of justice |
and deal with your thoughts of lust |
and sex and nakedness |
we see it as a testimony to motherhood. |
And you see it as a tit. |
|
It’s not the money it cost. |
It’s the message you send. |
We’ve got the right to live in freedom. |
We got the right to cheat Americans out |
of millions of dollars and then |
just not want to tell congress about it. |
We’ve got the right |
to drop bombs night and day |
on a small country that has no army, |
no navy, no military at all, |
because we’ve got the right to bear arms |
but we just better not even think |
about not the right to bare breasts. |
So now John you can be photographed |
while you stand there and talk about |
guns and bombs and poisons |
without the breast appearing over your right
shoulder |
without that bodacious bosom bothering you |
and we just wanted to tell you |
in the spirit of justice |
in the spirit of truth |
John |
there is still one very big boob left standing there
in that picture. |
