Three Hundred Million, Population USA
We're three hundred million and still adding more.
The popular opinion: this is an open door.
We're three hundred million and still flying high.
The popular opinion: this is pie in the sky.
We're three hundred million and still fouling earth.
The popular opinion: this is a right of birth.
We're three hundred million and still wanting all.
The popular opinion: this is an urban sprawl.
We're three hundred million and still seeking wealth.
The popular opinion: this is a tax on health.
We're three hundred million and still killing man.
The popular opinion: this is a worthy plan.
We're three hundred million and still showing greed.
The popular opinion: this is a valid need.
We're three hundred million and still going strong.
The popular opinion: this is where we belong.
