Cheering Section Lyrics

Palatka Cheering Section

In goodwill gesture crowds color-coded words stand on
tiptoe to shout, necks crane sore to watch people not
like them beaten, attacked and crushed beneath: flag-
waving arms that learn to hit flag-burning infidels
glistening with spit; flag waving arms stretched upwards
in support of white-minded individuals working to curb
freedoms once fought for by people in picket lines, by
people on bus rides, by people behind bedroom doors, and
by people in abortion clinics.
