Goodbye Freedom, Hello Mom
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We'll ban that book and T.V. show
Forget that movie, no you can't go
Can't sell that record, don't like that song
We know what's right we know what's wrong
Can't have abortions, what's yours ain't yours
Just obey the laws
Too young to drink, say no to drugs
We'll take your piss and blood
"All the world's a stage you get the lead
Ain't no way I'm gonna play the part of the fool
There ain't no way man - no way!"
Bikers wear helmets, cars safety belts
You might hurt yourself
We're watching out, We're watching out
We're watching out for you...
Well the new right's been at work some time
They ain't so new no more
Can you hear 'em knockin'
Knockin' down your door
1984 has past, forget about Big Brother
Welcome to the 90's where the government's your
mother
They'll tell you - don't do that
They'll try and tell you - it's for your own good.
Big Mother is watching you
Mother's protecting you
Mommy knows what's right for you
They force their will on all the rest
They got the power, they know what's best
The high court is stacked to the right
Old man on the left won't live through the night
They'll tell you - don't do that
They'll try and tell you - it's for your own good
Big Mother is watching you
Mother's protecting you
Mommy knows what's right for you...
Goodbye Freedom, hello Mom
The Bill of Rights just disappeared
There it is - whoops it's gone!
Goodbye Freedom, hello Mom
All your rights just disappeared
Everybody stay calm
First amendment casualties, but they won't be the
last,
Kiss the Bill of Rights goodbye it's disappearing
fast.
They'll tell you - don't do that
They'll try and tell you - it's for your own good
Big Mother is watching you
Mother's protecting you
Mommy knows what's right for you...
Goodbye Freedom, hello Mom
The Bill of Rights just disappeared
There it is - whoops it's gone!
Goodbye Freedom, hello Mom
All your rights just disappeared
Everybody stay calm
