lyrics

Were we sleeping?
Was I asleep?
When did knock and announce turn into sneak and peak?

Paper patriot?
Is that what you believe?
Why don’t they invoke their law, pull my file and find out what I read?

Uniting and strengthening America by providing appropriate tools
required to intercept and obstruct terrorism
To deter and punish terrorist acts in the United States and around the world to enhance law enforcement investigatory tools, and for other purposes

I don’t feel like a Patriot when I say
Here, take my constitution, I’m not using it anyway
I don’t feel like a terrorist just because I say
I need to keep my rights, I don’t agree with what you say

No Sunset clause
For a potential offence
What is a potential offence? Something you thought about? Something you might have thought about?

Forfeit Enduring Freedom
For Homeland Security
Ghosts unsupported by fact or example, you’re not convincing me

Thirty-two million Americans
A number equivalent to the population of Canada
Report they have been victims of racial profiling
They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety
deserve neither liberty nor safety

I don’t feel like a Patriot when I say
Here, take my constitution, I’m not using it anyway
I don’t feel like a terrorist just because I say
I need to keep my rights, I don’t agree with what you say
