Cover her face mine eyes dazled by thy darkness lord 
some sort of birds dip their pinions in the painted brow
while ambition strives some vast rock to throw
through the window of the bank  \\O lord, thy slaughtered
showered by shattered glass

So did I do good or what, eh, Mad Dog??  F*** the poor and the weak anyway, they don't pay their way, we're going to have the greatest military in the world!! And we're going to pay for it by squeezing down tighter and tighter on health care for everybody but the very very rich because we know they are the top people, absolutely the best people!!! We're going to have the biggest aircraft carriers!!!! Very very big ones!!!!! It's going to be so incredible!!!!!! Just absolutely tremendous!!!!!! It's going to be so great and we're going to persuade everybody how great it is by just repeating that great fake word, Access, it's such a great word, meaning pay through the nose or die, or possibly pay through the nose and die anyway, and slowly, and without dignity, because this is America, and it's going to be so great, everybody is going to just love it!!!!!!! (So... did I do good, by the way, or what?)
