This is your American dream

Blackjack
by Everclear

Scary John gets his strong arm on
He can break me and make me
Happy with his blackjack
Scary John gets his heavy hand on
he smiles without his eyes
nice and easy with his blackjack Don't tell me that you didn't see this coming down
please don't say that this isn't what you wanted now
Scary John gets his strong arm on
He can break me and make me
Happy with his blackjack
Scary John always knows whats going on
He is everywhere
Happy with his blackjack Please don't tell me that you didn't see this coming down
Please don't this that this isn't what you wanted now
Yeah this is your American dream
Everything is simple in the white and the black
you will never need to see the gray anymore
you will never have to be afraid
When you are happy with the blackjack
Happy with the blackjack
I hope you are happy with the blackjack
scary john wants to kill my song
he doesn't like the fact I'm not happy with the blackjack I don't want to hear the words that he has to say
Don't tell me that you didn't see this coming down
Don't say that this isn't what you wanted now
Don't tell me this isn't what you asked for
Be careful what you ask for
Be careful what you ask for
Be careful what you ask for
Yeah this is your American dream
Everything is simple in the white and the black
Never have to see the gray anymore
Never have to be afraid
when you're happy with the blackjack
I hope you're happy with the blackjack
Happy with the blackjack
Happy with the blackjack
Happy with the blackjack
This is your American dream This is your American dream This is your American dream This is your American dream.

The American Republic, 1776-2006. Rest In Peace.

  1. We have become what we always fought against and it feels awful. I'm glad all the soldiers who gave their life for this country can't see what's been allowed to happen to it, aren't you?

  3. ''That's not the way the world really works anymore,'' he continued. ''We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality -- judiciously, as you will -- we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors . . . and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.''
    - Bush administration official, quoted by Ron Suskind

    Many of you Leftist Jacobin Nogoodniks thought Dear Leader and His Holy Administration were just blowing hot air when they evinced this attitude way back in 2002. No one's laughing now! All hail Dear Leader, who bombs the Islamofascists into Freedom(tm)! He shall march on a Road of Bones!

    PS. Lots of bones.
