I had a dream
I hailed a dream
One dark night
To find myself
In a place not right
My choices had
Been taken away
By a backward court
Of the grand old ways!
The old wild west
Still held its sway
They said it was
Their country's way
The right to bear arms
Still had its freedom
No matter how many
Kids were bleedin'
And all LGBTQ
Had to watch out too
Cos these good ol' boys
Were gunnin' for you!
I have a dream
Once, a great man said
But, in the end
They shot him dead
The dream turned sour
In this land of the free
So I hailed me another
'Case they came for me

Thank you Stephen. America, to me, is, sadly, starting to implode.
