Poem
The Bill of Rights was ratified by citizens in these states, But, see, now there is a problem Today, it’s the world we face. There are ten things Gov. cannot do, They are spelled out for everyone. For now, these rights are set in stone. Let’s review them, one by one. The right to worship where you dare is the Number One protection. Arab, Jew or the Satanist; Free from undo persecution. But when their Gods tell them to kill we will hunt the sinners down. We’ll even fight in foreign lands and bomb them into the ground. It also says to speak your mind! It was next on Jefferson’s slate. But, please, don’t utter the wrong words, No obscenities from your crate. Burn a flag and we don’t care, The Supreme Court said one day. Even fools deserve a voice. But, in schools, you cannot pray. Freedom of press is mighty nice Till Paparazzi track you down. How does the First Amendment Let them treat you like a clown? If the press is wrong, you can sue But infrequently will you win. The Courts have said, time and again, Their mistakes we will pardon. The right to gather we do have. Thank the Gods they put this in. Just make the choice of time and place And let the world see you win. Protest someone’s execution, Say CNN and Fox News, We will ask you stupid questions And take shots from different views. Right to Bare Arms is Number Two NRA says that’s a FACT now. Our founding fathers never saw An SMG shot at a cow. If they had, I truly think, They’d be completely horrified. A change of minds you’d see so fast, ‘less, of course, they’re petrified. Militia is a good idea. Let’s secure the federation. Please don’t shoot the officers When they come for regulation. You’ll only see the FBI If you buy weapons banned, Or if you brainwash members To take poison from your hand. Number Three? No GIs in home: Not at peace, nor if at war. Unless the Houses pass a law Proposed by a senator. But even with that stupid law We will ask before we do. Forefathers said we surely must Just don’t expect us to pay you.
