Manifest Destiny!
Restless ol' quest esprit-
Best of the Westerly claims!
Drunkenly binging,
Ah fuck, we're impinging!
Our cups runneth over again...
Three cheers for Jefferson,
Preachers, and Remingtons!
Free jeers for everyone else!
Gawblezamurica!
Good God, I'm sure it's a
Damn-shame t'live anywhere else!
Don't flinch if we harm ya!
...sure, I've heard of "car-ma":
Ain't that what's makes chocolates so tasty?
We's was blessed with a sword
'n we earned our reward,
So now don't ya go calling us hasty!
We'll break'em and bleed'em,
So here's to our freedom!
Cheers to the Land we was born in!
Danifest Mestiny!
Tip back the rest... hope we
Don't regret that in the mornin'.
