Ameica's Newsman Tells You

I love my country with all loyalty
I love our ideas and democracy 
I enjoy my freedom all too well
But recently America has made me say what the hell
A news-man on TV once told me, 
That this country is perfectly fine We live in meritocracy
Based off talents, hard work, and a working based currency
I replied to the screen, haven’t you seen
Plans of bailout, political corruption, and CEO fiends
He interrupted my statement to say, 
If you disagree with our government you live in an un-American way
I said well hell that’s unfair; I criticize our government constructively because I care
I yelled I just want see change, I just wanna help this country through my minor things!!
The newsman then said, believe what I say support current system or else bad things lie 
ahead
My roommate walked into the room and said, this man knows his sh-t James his books I 
read, 
I said oh hell America might be dead.
