Caribbean Bruise Cruise

by Andres


Jesus Fuckin Crisis!!!
Intervention again.
Gun boat diplomacy
     calling the shots
     in the name of democracy.
Divine rights
     allowing US to exploit masses
     in the name of human rights.
Whos next
     on the Armed Forces radio
     hit list?
The drums of Haitian rhythms,
the sounds of Cuban salsa
     may give way to the poundingof 
     the Army brass band,
     backed by the Congressional choir.
Sounds so good,
     the bombs, the missiles,
     the guns, and screams,
it will be music to our ears.
It will be cheers for the red, white, and blue
     accompanied by replays
     of Tony Orlando and Dawn.
Prepare for the patriotic test,
     support our cannon fodder
     and fuck the rest.
The rhetoric, the distortions
     will once again prove us right,
because
     we hold the monopoly on morality
     despite our immoral actions
     on the island of voodoo
          economics:
          a.k.a. cheap black labor.
Well be dancing in the streets
     celebrating our mock accomplishment
     and false sense of pride,
     because its the only thing
     we tend to do correctly--
     intervene and conquer,
serve and protect
business interests.
Always remember
     whats good for the generals
     is good for General Motors.
