I love the confident look of pride and Determination on that soldier’s face.

[The Mayor]

Thanks Meg, that service never seems to come to an end does it. Not that I’m complaining but one would think that we would be able to sit back and enjoy victory at some point.

[The Mayor]

Amen!

[MEG33]

No, sadly..The threats to our freedoms are ongoing.

Wear RED today
To show Honor and Support
To all our TROOPS....
Those who are serving,
Those who have served....

And those who gave their all.

TWO RED BOWS UPON MY SHOES

Today I go to dance class
Two red bows upon my shoes
My Mommy said they're special
Because she got some news:

My Daddy won't be coming home
He went to Heaven yesterday
He joined the other soldiers there,
We must be brave and pray.

The red bows are to honor him
And show the world we care
For all he gave his country
And the pride we all will share.

So today I go to dance class
And though my eyes are FILLED with tears,
I'll wear two red bows upon my shoes
And remember Daddy from past years.

His Latest 'Change' To the tune of:His Latest Flame

My friend Barrack....
came by today...
cause he~ was killing every job in town
with poli~cies that are not sound
T'was Bush he blamed...
for his latest 'Change'

He talked and talked....
and I heard him say...
that he ha~d the best danged plan for us
just a trill~ion more for stim-u-lus
More of the same...
in his latest 'Change'

********** repeat ***********

Though I smiled my guts inside were a-burnin'
Was about to throw up when he said good-bye
Tho' he was gone my stomach still was a-churnin'
What else was there for me to do but cry

Would you believe....
that yesterday...
I ha~d a job and it fed me
it pai~d the bills for my family
We've got a lot more pain...
from his latest 'Change'

****************************

Yeah, we've got a lot more pain...
from his latest 'Change'

Oh, we've got a lot more pain...
from his latest 'Change'
