Mr. President, this event should have you appalled
It's all about a man who answered when his country called
A Green Beret, a warrior
man of honor
that's plain to see
But he's been held in Monaco and treated shamefully
To save others he had risked his life and fought hard as he could fight
The injustice that he's suffered must be brought to light
So he needs your help
this man's been forgotten and left alone
It's time that you do your duty sir
this hero must come home
Please bring Ted Maher back home
You can intervene
you can do what others cannot
He's held on trumped-up charges
you're the only hope he's got
His wife and kids are waiting
while he's being drugged in his cell
How is it that a hero must endure a living hell
To save others he had risked his life and fought hard as he could fight
The injustice that he's suffered must be brought to light
So he needs your help
this man's been forgotten and left alone
It's time that you do your duty sir
this hero must come home
Please bring Ted Maher back home
The lyrics are PERFECT. Thank you, thank you, thank you. :)
Quite honestly, I've wondered the same thing. Perhaps they're afraid of the Russian mob.
