Songwriting at the 1st Amendment Monument Under the Eye of Authority
LYRICS
You can’t smoke
You can’t drink
They’re passing a law — you can’t think
You can’t toke
Doesn’t oppression stink?
Placing the last straw
You can’t even blink
Chorus
America!
Home of the free and brave?
America!
Or are we now the slave?
The bloated bloke
Greased palm and a wink
Causing a flaw
And more than one kink
Chorus
America — Songwriting at the Liberty Bell (How to Play the Guitar Video).mp4
