Shadowed beneath thy hand1

One nation under God, Indivisible 2

A house divided against itself cannot stand3

Gotta let it burn4

 

Burn Baby Burn

Disco5/Dante’s Inferno

 

Beyond this place of wrath and tears looms but the horror of the shade6

Don’t worry, If there’s a hell below, we’re all going to go. Don’t worry.7

Hakuna Matata, what a wonderful phrase.8 Too bad it’s not the one that pays.

Money,Money, Money, In the words of the O’Jays9

 

For richer or poorer, in sickness and in health

To love and to cherish10

E Pluribus Unum

Until death….after death, after death, after death…

 

No justice, No peace

On earth, goodwill toward men11

 

If God is our father, brothers all are we12

But the brothers who keep dying all look like me…

 

God Bless America13 with Liberty and justice for all 2

 

We have Hands up Don’t Shoot.

What We need is a laying on of hands 14
