Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away

Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air

You better watch out

There may be dogs about

I've looked over Jordan, I have seen

Things are not what they seem

What do you get for pretending the danger's not real?

Meek and obedient, you follow the leader

Down well trodden corridors, into the valley of steel

What a surprise!

A look of terminal shock in your eyes

Now things are really what they seem

No, this is not a bad dream

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want

He makes me down to lie

Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by

With bright knives He releaseth my soul

He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places

He converteth me to lamb cutlets

For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger

When cometh the day we lowly ones

Through quiet reflection and great dedication master the art of karate

Lo, we shall rise up and then we'll make the bugger's eyes water

Bleating and babbling we fell on his neck with a scream

Yeah, ha-ha-ha

Wave upon wave of demented avengers

March cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream

Have you heard the news?

The dogs are dead

You better stay home and do as you're told

Get out of the road if you wanna grow old

That’s doing a bit more than trying

""Leavitt proudly and boldly claims the killing was necessary to stop what she described as a “larger, sinister left-wing movement.”"

An unnamed left wing movement? She has to know the name of this sinister organization if such an organization exists. She's the mouthpiece for the entire US federal government. When, if ever, has a left wing movement not proudly proclaimed it's name?

I would suggest “Patriots “ but some other assholes already took that name.
