Standard (EADGBE)
While digesting Readers Digest in the back of a dirty book store
A plastic flag with gum on the back Fell out on the floor.
Well I picked it up and ran outside And slapped it on my windowshield.
And If I could see old Betsy Ross Id tell her how good I feel.
(Chorus)
But, your flag decal wont get you into Heaven anymore.
Theyre already overcrowded From your dirty little war
Now Jesus dont like Killin No matter what the reasons for.
And your flag decal wont get you into Heaven anymore.
Well I went to the Bank this morning And the cashier said to me
If you join the Christmas Club We'll give you ten of them flags for free.
I didnt mess a round a bit I took him up on what he said
And stuck them stickers all over my car And one on my wifes forehead.
(Chorus)
Well I got my windshield so filled with flags I couldnt see
So I ran my car upside a curb and right into a tree
By the time they got a doctor down I was already dead,
And Ill never understand Why the man,
Standing in the Pearly Gates said
(Chorus)
