The Lady of the States

Said I really don’t care, do you?
If you did you would shed a tear.
For why don’t you cry when you see a child lost,
to where his or her mother might be?
The attorney general who used to be a -senator,
someone quote the Bible for me
then there are the same people,
that will tell you they’re Christians you see,
who believe in the lands of the Lord’s America
and all people are free to come and go
as the wind blows across the Lord’s plains. 

Man has wronged each other for years,
a child cries and no one asks about the tear of another.
How many tears did you wipe away?
If they only knew, for my Lord counts all of his tears
and Rachel Maddam to the one who flew over the cuckoo’s nest,
the tears of the believer are the best.
But why cry when you can fight
for the widow and the child of God. 

Are all my tears pure in its sorrows
and a blessing to come?
And when will I cry?
When this day comes.
