Our fore fathers fought to make this country free
If they were alive today tears would be running at what they see
There once was a party over a 2 percent tax
And now we are told just to relax
We watch our freedom change like a songwriter’s beat
For they want us to think they are giving us a treat
They change the wording using it like bait
Telling us the times have change and the spending is great
They stand and say it is for the best for all of the people
But you could stuff all of them in the church’s steeple
There are taxes for incomes as we work on our job
But years ago wasn’t it known as the mob
Our freedom was fought so we would have a choice
But we learn they don’t want to listen to our voice
We work hard to save for when we get old
But the rising taxes will put us out in the cold
Our military will fight for the freedom of this land
But our rights to bear arms is getting out of hand
We the people on the paper is what we will read
But it gets changed because of someone’s pride or greed
