[00:09.22]i’d like to say a few words
[00:14.39]in defense of our country
[00:19.68]whose people aren’t bad nor are they mean
[00:29.22]now the leaders we have
[00:34.01]while they’re the worst that we’ve had
[00:38.20]are hardly the worst this poor world has seen
[00:43.67]
[00:47.09]take the caesars for example
[00:50.24]why within the first few of them
[00:52.72]they were sleeping with their sister
[00:54.69]stashing little boys in swimming pools
[00:57.39]and burning down the city
[00:58.93]and one of ‘em, one of ’em
[01:01.46]appointed his own horse consul of the empire
[01:03.85]that’s like vice president or something
[01:06.66]that’s not a very good example, is it?
[01:10.92]but wait, here’s one, the spanish inquisition
[01:13.37]they put people in a terrible position
[01:16.87]i don’t even like to think about it
[01:20.71]well, sometimes i like to think about it
[01:23.72]
[01:25.15]just a few words in defense of our country
[01:34.16]whose time at the top
[01:37.11]could be coming to an end
[01:42.24]now we don’t want their love
[01:46.93]and respect at this point is pretty much out of the question
[01:52.50]but in times like these
[01:55.01]we sure could use a friend
[01:57.54]
[02:00.51]hitler. stalin.
[02:06.41]men who need no introduction
[02:10.76]king leopold of belgium. that’s right.
[02:14.23]everyone thinks he’s so great
[02:18.11]well he owned the congo
[02:21.34]he tore it up too
[02:23.96]he took the diamonds, he took the gold
[02:26.10]he took the silver
[02:27.84]know what he left them with?
[02:33.54]malaria
[02:36.35]
[02:38.00]a president once said,
[02:40.67]"the only thing we have to fear is fear itself"
[02:44.26]now it seems like we’re supposed to be afraid
[02:47.86]it’s patriotic in fact and color coded
[02:51.10]and what are we supposed to be afraid of?
[02:54.32]why, of being afraid
[02:56.50]that’s what terror means, doesn’t it?
[02:58.61]that’s what it used to mean
[03:01.53]
[03:04.98]you know it pisses me off a little
[03:07.30]that this supreme court is gonna outlive me
[03:11.02]a couple of young italian fellas
[03:12.49]and a brother on the court now too
[03:15.83]but i defy you, anywhere in the world
[03:19.28]to find me two italians as tightass as the two italians we got
[03:23.78]and as for the brother
[03:25.67]well, pluto’s not a planet anymore either
[03:30.14]
[03:31.88]the end of an empire is messy at best
[03:38.06]and this empire is ending
[03:41.76]like all the rest
[03:45.06]like the spanish armada adrift on the sea
[03:52.13]we’re adrift in the land of the brave
[03:55.42]and the home of the free
[03:57.52]goodbye. goodbye. goodbye.
