The tyrant stretches
The tyrant stretchesDespoils the heedless ten thousand wretchesA hundred thousand lose their livesAmong these, mothers, fathersLives deniedUpon the altar, of the despot's bloody counterWill his armies falter nay! They saunter.Will they bomb both night and dayDestroyingHouses villages so much clayCompletely thoughtless as if to scoreWith all these bloody losses VILLAIN MORE?So will your name, on histories bloody roster shameWrite your name In Gore and Victim BloodOne more name on hist’ry role in mudWritten bloody on that scrollAs you trample Cities, factories, storesNot to cure or save or feedJust to grind with sharpen teeth in your endless friendless steaming smoking greedAlways will you find, offenseIn some token blame you’ll break the fenceUntil the neighbors gather roundDrive you from the broken bloodied groundYou can tally up your victr’iesWhat price vain glory? The rebuke of hist’ry.That goal you seekWill paint you sicklyBloodiedYour name will ever ‘n future reekCarve your nameIn the rotten corpse of painCrumbled HumbledYour ever Poisonous Blame’d Craven Grave o’ Name
