lyrics

They're gonna call it freedom, their right to hang you up by your toes!
They're gonna call it freedom, their right to hang you up by your toes!
If you don't like my freedom, baby, we got a nice place for you the other side of that wall!

They're gonna call it freedom, their right to send the earth up in smoke!
They're gonna call it freedom, their right to send the earth up in smoke!
If you don't like my freedom, baby, we got a nice place for you, we'll tell you where you can go! You and Huffington Post!

They're gonna call it freedom, their right to shoot you if you're making them nervous!
They're gonna call it freedom, their right to shoot you if you're making them nervous!
If you don't like my freedom, baby, we got a nice place for you the other side of that wall!
If we catch you sneaking back, we'll just have to shoot you two times!

They're gonna call it freedom, their right to tell you that the ballot is broke!
They're gonna call it freedom, their right to tell you that the ballot is broke!
Just get along and go home now, folks!
If you don't like my freedom, baby, we got a nice place for you the Chinese side of the moon! Just for you and Paul Krugman!
