Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Decorated in the war
A U.S. ambassador
Caught selling secrets to a foreign conspirator
Pledged his allegiance to the red, white and the blue
As government secrets turn to revenue
He shredded documents
Restricted and confident
Then he got caught
The proof was evident
Traitor to the cause
Broke all the highest laws
So why is he still greeted with the big applause?
[Verse 2]
American disgrace
Patriot gone to waste
He took a little taste
And had to have it all
Betrayed the fatherland
The flag and all for which it stands
Desertion was the plan he chose to call
American disgrace
Patriot gone to waste
Greed was his demise when he took the fall
Betrayed the fatherland
The flag and all for which it stands
Traitor to the cause
A.W.O.L.
[Verse 3]
Now a media star
The whole thing is so bizarre
How this turncoat's rich from seminars
Paying out their ass to see a man who sold out to greed
A Benedict Arnold who made the nation bleed
New book's a bestseller
T.V. movie in the cellar
Unpatriotic asshole
Should be a prison dweller
Iron clad alibi
Nothing but a pack of lies
Just another felon
Wearing a disguise
[Verse 4]
American disgrace
Patriot gone to waste
He took a little taste
And had to have it all
Betrayed the fatherland
The flag and all for which it stands
Desertion was the plan he chose to call
American disgrace
Patriot gone to waste
Greed was his demise when he took the fall
Betrayed the fatherland
The flag and all for which it stands
Traitor to the cause
A.W.O.L.

[Verse 5]
American disgrace
Patriot gone to waste
He took a little taste
And had to have it all
Betrayed the fatherland
The flag and all for which it stands
Desertion was the plan he chose to call
American disgrace
Patriot gone to waste
Greed was his demise when he took the fall
Betrayed the fatherland
The flag and all for which it stands
Traitor to the cause
A.W.O.L.
[Verse 6]
Traitor to the cause
A.W.O.L.
Traitor to the cause
A.W.O.L.
Traitor to the cause
A.W.O.L.
Traitor to the cause
A.W.O.L.
[Verse 7]
A.W.O.L.
