Songwriting at the 1st Amendment Monument Under the Eye of Authority

LYRICS
You can’t smoke
You can’t drink
They’re passing a law — you can’t think

You can’t toke
Doesn’t oppression stink?
Placing the last straw
You can’t even blink

Chorus
America!
Home of the free and brave?
America!
Or are we now the slave?

The bloated bloke
Greased palm and a wink
Causing a flaw
And more than one kink

Chorus

Wrongful Arrest at the Liberty Bell
Wrongful Arrest at the Liberty Bell

LYRICS
How can you attest
That’s resisting arrest?
All she was doing
Was a peaceful protest

Then, you come down on her
Like a Gestapo mob
Take away freedom
And, her liberty rob

That’s what I cal
Shitty authority
You know it when
It stinks to high heaven
You take from all
Sucking royally
As if the creator dictator

At any rate
Create
Dictate
Gangster mobster police state
