SING IT to the tune of Someone to Watch Over Me
Eric Holder, do you think I’m a spy?
I know that I
Cannot see why
Someone should watch over me.
Must there always be surveillance and taps?
Is it perhaps
You think we’re saps
To let you watch over us?
Although you pose as such a hero,
In my book you’re zero–
Police state, not securi-t-y.
Take your Patriot Act and bury it now,
Better learn how
Not to allow
Your spies to watch over me.
