The Biggest Tent

It was the biggest tent
That tent called the United States
Everyone lived under it
They were all friends and mates

Demos loved Repubs
Repubs loved the Demos, too
All lived in the great big tent
Safely as animals in a zoo

You take such a tent
A tent of common love
And you'll find it's hard for someone from outside
To come in and start to shove

It's hard for them to work the crowd
Inciting friends against each other
Hard to get them riled up
Turning brother against his brother

So, what's wrong with America?
Where did we go wrong?
We failed to keep the Second Commandment
And, you should realize that, you ding-dong
