I'll start her off:

The {Downing Street} memo says

We've got to work to make the facts fit the false charges
Pull the wool over the eyes of the filthy masses
Stab the people in the back for the corporate choice
Roll the propaganda out using The People's Voice


{they say} "We don't want to talk about it"

The press scribble scribble every half-truth spoke
Then they shoot it around the country like an April Fools joke
Hype the nation for a Desert Storm love affair
Wave the stars and stripes like you just don't care

They talk it up all day, they talk it up all night
They talk until their face turns blue
But when the truth escapes the night, and crawls into the day
we find the picture still askew

They don't want to talk about it
They wanna tiptoe, walk around it
Wave the flag and mindlessly salute
They don't want to talk about it
They wanna tiptoe, walk around it
Wave the flag in cowardly salute

And on the TV screen

Diversion and aversion is the flavor of the day
Was it WMDs or Democracy?
Blame it on MI-6 or the CIA
The White House Press Corpse only has one thing to say

"We don't want to talk about it."

The White House boils over, "Al Jazeera got it wrong!"
The Press Corpse jumps on board singing the White House song
While over in Iraq thousands are dead because of lies
The spineless war-drumming press corpse have taken lives

Fires fueled on endless lies
Black shrouds coat desert skies
A nation's viewpoint blurred and led
As embeds report what they're fed

- The Press Corpse by Anti-Flag

"All great truths begin as blasphemies."

- George Bernard Shaw

Happy Days are Here Again. We can sing it when Trump is impeached and leaves Washington.


The news is real. The President is fake.

You people and your misguided impeachment wishes. I doubt 99% of you even know what impeachment means.

Impeachment is nothing more than a formal statement of charges, not some fantasy-land abandonment of position like the media is trying to get you to believe.

We know that. Impeachment is followed by a trial in the Senate. Now, any president with integrity would resign rather than be convicted. Not sure what Trump will do.



The news is real. The President is fake.

Kid: Hey, who left all this garbage on the steps of Congress?
Amendment: I'm not garbage.
(starts singing)
I'm an amendment-to-be, yes an amendment-to-be,
And I'm hoping that they'll ratify me.
There's a lot of flag-burners,
Who have got too much freedom,
I want to make it legal
For policemen to beat'em.
'Cause there's limits to our liberty,
At least I hope and pray that there are,
'Cause those liberal freaks go too far.
(spoken)
Kid: But why can't we just make a law against flag-burning?
Amendment: Because that law would be unconstitutional.
But if we changed the Constitution
Kid: Then we could make all sorts of crazy laws!
Amendment: Now you're catching on!
Kid: What if people say you're not good enough to be in the
Constitution?
(sings)
Amendment: Then I'll crush all opposition to me,
And I'll make Ted Kennedy pay.
If he fights back, I'll say that he's gay.
(spoken)
Congressman: Good news, Amendment! They ratified ya!
You're in the US Constitution!
Amendment: Oh yeah!

But I write many lives and lay on these lines
Wave the signs of the times
Many say the grind's on the mind
Shorties blunted-eyed and everyone wanna rhyme
Bush pushing lies, killers immortalized
We got arms but won't reach for the skies
Waiting for the Lord to rise
