I should feel safe… or so I’m told
Saddam Hussein is forever gone
Now at home all is well
Safe and secure… or so I’m told.

Rivers and streams toxic dumps to become
But… Saddam is gone, I should feel safe…
… or so I’m told.

Pristine lands will now be mined,
Their timber cut,
Their fields to drill…
… but…
Saddam is gone and I should feel safe…
… or so I’m told.

Unemployment way too high,
8 million strong and growing still…
Saddam is gone… I should feel safe…
… or so I’m told.

Democracy and freedom exported now,
While here at home the Patriot Act rules,
But… Saddam is gone… I should feel safe…
… or so I’m told.

Rebuild Iraq, now we must
While states at home all go bust… but
… Saddam is gone… I should feel safe…
… or so I’m told.

From acts of terror the nation we must protect
So no-knock warrants hang ‘round our necks,
But Saddam is gone… I should feel safe…
… or so I’m told.

Veterans living on the streets
Some are sick…
Some will die… while VA budget must be cut
For to Iraq the money must flow
But… Saddam is gone; I should feel safe…
… or so I’m told.

Rebuild schools in Iraq
While here at home lack of funds see them cut,
But… Saddam is gone, I should feel safe…

Investment bankers give advice,
Creative accounting, profits real nice
And CEO’s get real rich while employee pensions end in a ditch;

… or so I’m told.

Truth will out amidst the lies
Administration and corporations have major ties
Saddam is gone... I should feel safe…

America was great because it was good,
No more good its greatness falls
Even now with Saddam all gone
I don’t feel safe, I don’t feel secure
As the policies of my government to my heart strike fear.

The idea of America is still alive
But Bush and Ashcroft would see it die!
With troops on our streets
And fear to speak out
Makes me wonder if America will survive
But in the end Saddam is gone
So safe and secure I can now feel…
… or so I’m told.
