But Seriously
Welcome to our country, my foreign friend.
We're awful glad to have you living here.
Your freedoms now will seem without an end.
If you have suggetions, we'd love to hear.
We've got critics, so we have grown thick skin,
And we know to take the bad with the good.
We've learned to grow by seeing where we've been,
And seeing that our faults are understood.
They said,"Diversify", and so we did -
And found ourselves a complicated bag.
So you can do whatever lifts your lid -
But seriously, just don't burn my flag!
