Twenty-first century peace accord

Twenty-first century peace accord Paris was lovely in January of seventy-three, that is unless you were living in the south In Vietnam where the signing of the Peace Accord meant your doom soon as it left Nixon’s mouth With a decent interval to save face knowing full well it would ultimately lead to the collapse Kissinger admitted as much but the Stab-in-the-back myth curried favor with the right-minded chaps Saigon fell and the left took the blame, but everyone forgot cause they ramped up Watergate Learn from history people, let’s not make the same mistake, wake up before it’s too late Talk about inflation, and the high price of gas Getting so it’s expensive just to cut the grass Time has come for us to try and reap a little reward Bury the hatchet have a twenty-first century peace accord Time to stand as one, ain’t buying the bullshit that somehow sitting on our hands Will keep Putin from pushing the button that will eliminate all our homelands Put the power to the Bear, get some planes in the air and kick his ass out of Ukraine Every day we see the bodies of the innocent young children, man this is insane Left and right remember we are all living under the red, white and blue Like our forefathers before us, in times of crisis we know what to do Talk about inflation, and the high price of gas Getting so it’s expensive just to cut the grass Time has come for us to try and reap a little reward Bury the hatchet have a twenty-first century peace accord Return the world to normalcy, while we’re at it lend a hand to the people down south of the borders Legal immigration’s not a dirty word, most of them would fill the void and help us complete orders Companies struggling for employees, from the fields to the factories and all the way to your table We all see the help wanted signs, but we shun the very group of people who are more than able And while we’re at it, work to end the cutting down of rain forests, time to explore alternative means Skipping a Big Mac once in a while for a healthier option also makes it easier to fit in your favorite jeans Talk about inflation, and the high price of gas Getting so it’s expensive just to cut the grass Time has come for us to try and reap a little reward Bury the hatchet have a twenty-first century peace accord Nancy and Mitch sitting in a tree, playing nice for everyone to see Donny shut the fuck up, Joe ignore the polls and do the right thing Reach across the aisle and shake hands and let’s see what it can bring Quit restricting women's rights, keep Congress out of our nights Don’t need your laws when we’re alone and we turn out the lights The time has come to drop the sword, use common sense folks cut the cord Do not follow blindly voices who open wounds that this country can’t afford Yeah, bury the hatchet and let’s have us a twenty-first century peace accord Tim Windisch 05/13/2022
