LOSING AMERICA"
They wanna make their mark on us
Start to micro chip a few
Regret they gotta take away some rights
And slowly turn the screw
They gotta keep the foe in sight
Interrogate and detain a few
Gotta cast the net, gotta win the fight
For this Flag of Red, White and Blue
Chorus
We're losing America
If they have their way
We have to wake up from our sleep
If we're gonna save the day
We've got our Democracy
We're all just one Clan
They surely mean to take us down
That surely is their plan
So they need to take some liberties
From mostly you and me
To defend the freedom that we have
In this state called emergency
Pain and trials are a'comin
But who are we to complain
And if they curtail our Constitution
I'm sure that they'll explain
(Repeat Chrorus)
They've given us the Patriot Act
To secure our way of life
So should we mount a protest
About a little coming strife
(Repeat Chorus)
