HOMELAND SECURITY (tune of Old Time Religion)

CHORUS: Give us that homeland security.
Give us that homeland security.
Give us that homeland security,
Or we'll call the cops on you.

It'll be good for our sons and daughters.
It'll be good. we'll close our borders.
It'll be good for law and order,
And it's good enough for me. CHORUS

Let's hire some teenage spies,
Send your prints to the FBI,
Check your background before you lie,
Or we'll call the cops on you. CHORUS

Need some military tribunals,
No more terrorist victim funerals.
Lock up alien suspects soon or we'll
Call the cops on you. CHORUS

Need a White House cabinet post
To be filled by the Holy Ghost,
Guard our country from coast to coast,
Or we'll throw the book at you. CHORUS

Hallelujah! Save our daughters.
Hallelujah! Close our borders.
Hallelujah! Law and order,
Or we'll call the cops on you. CHORUS

Well-penned. Everytime I hear that phrase, "Homeland Security," it strikes me how ironic that it doesn't refer to such things as adequate healthcare, fully-funded schools, etc., i.e. things that REALLY could help our country to feel secure! A pox on fearmongers!

Great song in the true folk tradition. I have been nervous ever since they first announced it!

I thought "Homeland Security" came about as a
govt experiment on how to apply "selling vaporware"
to the public much as Micr0s0ft does
