We've given them the power to do with us as they please
they can lock us up and throw away the key
if they think you're a threat they can just take you away
no questions asked, no one hears your plea
better watch what you say or theyll be knocking down your door today

in search of saftey, we've thrown our lives down the drain

now we are "free" to live out our lives
protecting our children with frightened lies
this is what we wanted, put our feers to rest
protection from the unknown, the foreign, the pest
best be on your gaurd and do what ever they say or
you'll be in the company of saddam hussain
