| HE'S TRIED !! |
Want to get a serious dose Of what's known as culture shock? Go online...check out curriculum Of the public school down the block! Or of college institutions Anywhere in this great nation And you will come away I fear Filled with quiet desperation! Satanism, birth control... Witchcraft, the practice of Spells and potions, magic arts How to sacrifice a dove !!??!!?? A course on Homosexuality Defined quaintly as a 'life choice' An in-depth course on 'gansta rap' As a way for teens to find their voice! A detailed look at online porn That is by some considered "art"? Can someone, somewhere tell me when Did all this madness start? All the subjects listed here Turned up in a Google search.. Of American school curriculum And it made my stomach lurch!! But editorials in the papers And commentaries on network news? Tonight will once again complain As they pretend to be confused! Concerned about the morals Of the upcoming generation... No kidding!!! They're being forcefed Heaping piles of degradation!! We teach impressionable 8th graders About devil worship and it's tools... But a teacher mentions the name of GOD And it's breaking several rules! What the hell happened to America? For us to think this is Ok... Is there anyone with enough common sense To stand up and yell HEY!!!!!!!!! "Enough already...stop this crap!" Not politically correct? Too damn bad....do we sit and watch As a generation dies of neglect?? Then when something awful happens Like Katrina or 9/Eleven... We flock to church...ask "where was GOD?" While shaking our fists at Heaven!! But we kicked Him out of all the schools... We want His name gone from our money.. Say grace now in a restaurant? And folks look at you funny!! |

We want His name gone from our money.. Say grace now in a restaurant? And folks look at you funny!! We bend over backwards every day To ensure we don't offend A hundred groups or coalitions By thoughtless words we can't defend But what about God in Heaven? He's been ridiculed and ignored Contradicted, then denied... Our ancestors would be floored!? Americans used to be so convinced That the Lord was on our side... We sing "GOD BLESS AMERICA!" Well, I submit...HE's tried!! DUSTY RICHARDSON |
