Freedom?


What's this world coming to? Crooks, Traitors, Mongrels In Washington The people running the country Are running us down Takin' 'way our liberties Stompin' on our Rights Bye bye freedom Bye bye guns Bye bye God What on Earth have they done? Yet, we've allowed this Allowed them to walk on us Our heads are stamped with their footprints They say they're right They say "end of discussion" Why can;t we end it? Bye bye freedom Bye bye guns Bye bye God What on Earth have they done? No prayer allowed in schools No knives or guns allowed for defense No punches allowed to protect ourselves Not even allowed to speak our minds Bye bye freedom Bye bye guns Bye bye God What on Earth have they done? They teach us lies like its truth We accept what they say No questions asked We follow blindly Like sheep to the slaughter Can't make decisions on our own What happened to the Constitution? To the Bill of Rights? What happened to our Founding Fathers' principles? Bye bye freedom 'Bye bye guns Bye bye God What on Earth have they done?
