A Snoop In the House
A Snoop In the House
By Elton Camp
No search warrant does he need
The Constitution he needn’t heed
He’s learned the sneakiest way
Our right to privacy to betray
He’s learned every slimy trick
To be as all-knowing as St. Nick
Whether we’re asleep or awake
A clandestine look he can take
As a government agent always should
He knows if we’ve been bad or good
Phone calls, texts and our e-mail, too
He knows everything that we do
But his motives are altogether pure
To foil terrorists he wants to be sure
No wrong use will we ever see
We have Uncle Sam’s guarantee
Therefore, it must be this way
Our trust he’d never betray
