Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore

Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore

A John Prine classic that, sadly, is still timely after 35 years:

But your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.
They're already overcrowded
From your dirty little war.
Now Jesus don't like killin'
No matter what the reason's for,
And your flag decal won't get you
Into Heaven any more.


And the same goes for magnetic yellow ribbons. (What level of commitment is that? "I support the troops, but not enough to permanently affix my statement"?)
