Decorated in war

A.U.S. ambassador

Caught in 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

He broke our highest laws

So why is he still greeted

With the big applause?

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.!

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!
