Musical Parody: "In the uSA"
In the uSA
(to the tune of “Blue Bayou”)
by Brent-Emory..Johnson
Living in a once free land
Where injustice has been planned
Everything you do is scanned by the NSA
Go to sleep next to your spouse
All is quiet as a mouse
Till a SWAT team raids your house in the uSA
CHORUS
Take me back to the day
When there still was freedom in the uSA
Where the old time tree of liberty
Still showed the way
When the White House crew and the people knew
That God gave us our land
And we knew the truth and taught our youth to understand
Got a flight from LAX
Questioned ‘bout your baggage checks
This is what we have come to expect from the TSA
ATF and IRS
Taking all our happiness
Everyone lives in distress in the uSA
CHORUS
Take me back to the day
When there still was freedom in the uSA
Where the old time tree of liberty
Still showed the way
When the White House crew and the people knew
That God gave us our land
And we knew the truth and taught our youth to understand
Tired from shopping you want to rest
Sitting on a bench is best
Then the cops come to arrest you, what a day!
Wake up to another day
Go to school and dare to pray
Till they come to take you away in the uSA
CHORUS
Take me back to the day
When there still was freedom in the uSA
Where the old time tree of liberty
Still showed the way
When the White House crew and the people knew
That God gave us our land
And we knew the truth and taught our youth to understand
Oh my tortured soul will not be whole
Unless we restore our way
To the Land of the Free
And the Home of the Brave
In the uSA
Everybody pray
For our freedom today
In the uSA
