The Rogue © words and music by Doug Payne 2007 ©
Did you consider the pain
waiting for us at the border?
Did you proudly sign your name
authorising the order.
Did your follow through go smoothly
and the tee shot straight up the fairway?
Did you contemplate the cruelty
in the bunkers and sand far away?
With all your heart and soul
you sing to the Star Spangled Banner
and the little things you control
for a CNN camera.
A rogue tee shot strikes the first lady
For an hour the free world must stall
as a n Afghani looks for her baby
for a lifetime where rogue missiles fall.
But you're standing in all the right pictures.
Your spin doctors control the light.
With occasional quotes from the scriptures,
you help us continue the fight.
Do you feel that you're walking with Jesus?
Is he guiding you straight down the fairway?
But what will he think when he sees us?
What will he say judgement day?
What will he think when he sees us?
What will he say judgement day? ©
this has a bite!

MurkYou, you really need to learn a bit about military strategy before you praise Bush's "leadership." He has shown the same sort of leadership that Hitler showed when he left England sitting on his flank as he invaded Russia to secure the wheat and oil.

It would appear that the country has risen from a nightmare-ridden slumber and realized what we have been brought to. Let us all hope and pray that Barack Obama can restore the nation to some sense of order, give us something of which we can really be proud. As a soldier, I can feel no shame in my service, but I cannot feel any pride in wanton destruction of a nation to make the world safe for capitalism and usury.

The same exact thing can be said about you PissedOffTV. You say MurkY0u doesn't know what he's talking about, but how much do you really know?

Truly awesome! Thank you for sharing! This SHOULD be playing on 'folk', 'country', and 'light rock' stations all over the country. The music CAN help end a stupid war. Anyone remember Viet Nam? Peace.
