patrick batemanpart of 'the star spangled banner', the national anthem of the united states and named after the flag of the u.s.a.other part of this text:'[...] Oh thus be it e'er when free men shall stand
Between their lov'd homes and war's desolation!
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Pow'r that has made and presrv'd us a nation
And conquer we must when our cause is just
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the Star-Spangled Banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.'this soundbite is ironically used in this song about american psycho protagonist patrick bateman, who represents the emptiness of american culture.
