My Country Needs A History Lesson

By Jodi Evans (11/2009)

I opened up my door today

And this is what I saw:

Men with guns looked back at me

Declaring: “Marshall Law!”

It wasn’t supposed to be this way

This can’t be what it seems

First they take away your Freedom

Then they take away your Dreams

First they tax your paycheck

In the name of “healthy” care

Then they tax your tv set

And say “it’s for the air.”

They watch you with their cameras

And they confiscate your gun

Then they set up check points

So there’s nowhere left to run

They bill you for your neighbor

And they tell you it’s their RIGHT

But we came here for our Freedom

And for FREEDOM, we will fight!

We will not stoop to their level

By using guns and lies…

We will shine a light on all their deeds

With earnest, truthful cries!

It wasn’t supposed to be this way

This can’t be what it seems

First they take away your Freedom

Then they take away your Dreams

My country needs a History lesson

And we need to make it quick

The propaganda’s everywhere

And it’s getting really slick

My Mama’s in a wheelchair

With Guillian Barre

My Daddy’s in a FEMA camp

For yelling “U-S-A!”

My brother’s wife is really sick

From fluoride in the water

And my sister goes to court next week

For yelling at her daughter

How did we fall apart so fast?

How did we miss the signs?

Now our government’s controlling US

And crossing ALL the lines

It wasn’t supposed to be this way

This can’t be what it seems

First they take away your Freedom

Then they take away your Dreams
