[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
When 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?
Hahahaha
[Chorus]
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 2]
Now a media star, the whole thing is so bizarre
How is this turncoat rich from seminars?
Paying out their ass to see a man who sold out to greed
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
Hahahaha
[Chorus]
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
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
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
A.W.O.L
