Thank you Osama
You are the savior
Of our economy today
Now, that the dot comes
Choked on their stock frauds
Goldmine's homeland security
Why not hire half the country
To spy on the other half?
No more unemployment or privacy enjoyment
Think of the dividends
Who can we trust?
We trust McGruff the crime dog
Our O.G. TV Narc
Since you've accepted being drug tested
At work, at school, at play, at home
You'll each rejoice at your new companion
Who follows you everywhere you go
Always dressed in a trenchcoat
And a McGruff doggie mask
Never know who they are
Kuz you know better than to ask
Who can we trust?
We trust McGruff the crime dog
Total awareness
He sees you when you're sleeping
He knows when you're awake
He knows when you've been bad or good
So be good for the sake
Of McGruff the crime dog
Watching your every move
Your guardian angel in a doggie mask
In bed while you're asleep
No home invasions
Beside you when you get it on
No date rape
Stick a thumbtack up your butt
When you're slacking
On the job together
We will protect our way of life
Report all suspicious activity
Turn in your friends
Keep your home terrorist free
Take a bite out of crime
