Tugboat Jackson - The Last True Patriots

 Tugboat Jackson with a song that makes one wonder just where will it all end? He refers to no one by name that's in the government, but anyone with any sense of our situation knows who he is singing about. and one of the main points he makes is that all of it is not a cause; it is a symptom of something deeper. Something that has made us regress after some years of progressing with human rights. Now the world seems to be enveloped in the same conflicts, over and over again.

Sittin’ on the porch late at night 
Sittin’ with just the moon light 
Taken with gloom, impending doom 
Tryin’ to get back to what’s right 
 
Governed by grifters and liars 
I say by grifters and liars 
All departments, of government 
Worse than any of the priors 
 
Those in the know say you just wait 
The corrupt will be defeated 
But I wonder what will be our fate
 If they remain undefeated 
 
 The Congress will surely stop 'em 
But all they do is haw and hem 
The reality, it's corrupt you see 
And always goes along with them 
 
 Oh, hell! What 'bout The Supreme Court? 
They'll surely help pitch in, help abort! 
They roll over, give exec cover 
And do their best to help distort 
 
How did this happen to us? 
Have someone in charge scoffing laws? 
Pitching a bitch, throwing a fit 
What in the world was the cause? 
 
It's all just a symptom, not a cause 
The reason is simply because 
Through many years, so many fears 
And so many skirting the laws 
 
Corruption has been growing fast
Starting with years that are past 
Bad direction, insurrection 
It's finally caught up at last!
 
 And when the last true patriots
 Are shouted down, become extinct
 Will anyone even notice? 
Will anyone...even...blink?
