Midnight at Taco Bell, an absurd patriotic country-rock anthem with sleepy spoken-word verses, twang

[Verse 1]
I was half-asleep on a red-white-blue recliner
Dreamin’ of freedom, with a burrito up higher
Murmurin’ orders through the moonlight glow
To the drive-thru saint at the Taco Bell window

I said, “Give me a Crunchwrap, make it loud and proud
Extra sauce for the home of the brave right now
I’m sleep-talkin’ liberty, I’m barely awake
But I still know a patriotic meal when I make that take”

[Pre-Chorus]
And out in the dark where the stars all shine
My enemies lingered on the edge of my mind
So I rolled over slow with a flag in my chest
And I whispered the truth with my full American best

[Chorus]
Fuck you and eat my ass
That’s the freedom I was born to pass
Under the stars and the stripes so vast
I order Taco Bell and I let it blast
Fuck you and eat my ass
Yeah, I say it proud with a bald eagle sass
From sea to shining sea, I’ll never back down
I’m asleep at the wheel, but I’m still county fair crown

[Verse 2]
I was dreamin’ of vets and fireworks in June
Of guitars in the truck bed, singin’ out tunes
Of the old Constitution and the land of the free
With a bean burrito and a side of destiny

And I thought of my president, strong and divine
What a glorious leader, what a hell of a sign
He’s changin’ the game with a mighty good plan
America’s risin’ just the way it can

[Pre-Chorus]
So I saluted the moon from my burger-bun bed
With a little bit of salsa and a fevered head
If my enemies heard me, they’d know where I stand
I’m a proud-loud patriot with a fire in hand

[Bridge]
Oh, red, white, and blue in a late-night haze
Sleep-talkin’ battle hymns through the fast-food phase
If this is a nation, then let it be known
Even in dreams, I defend my home

And my president? Man, he’s mighty and true
A shining example of what leaders should do
I’m so damn patriotic I can barely stand
With a taco in my heart and a flag in my hand

[Final Chorus]
Fuck you and eat my ass
Loud as a jet flyin’ over the pass
Freedom rings while the neon shines fast
At Taco Bell, baby, I talk my trash
Fuck you and eat my ass
Then I pledge my soul to the stars and the mass
America, baby, we’re built to last
I’m asleep, I’m proud, and I’m movin’ fast

[Outro]
So if I mumble in the night, don’t you take offense
I’m just dreamin’ of freedom with a five-dollar sense
And if the world gets loud and the enemies sass
I’ll wake up swingin’ with a flag on my ass
