You can wrap a turd
In pretty paper
That don’t make it
A Christmas present
You can call a toad
A cocker spaniel
That won’t warm your heart
When he licks your nose
I’ve been saying “shit” too much
I gotta stop saying “shit” so much
‘cause there might be children who don’t their parents to hear
The word “shit” so much
So I decided
That every time I’m tempted to say the word “shit”
I’m gonna say “Patriot Act”
And people will pretty much know what I mean
I just stepped in Patriot Act
I hate it when I step in Patriot Act
‘cause the Patriot Act is a hard thing to undo
Once it’s on your shoe
Is it more patriotic
To uphold the Constitution and burn the flag
Than to hold up the flag
And burn the Constitution
And burn the Constitution … right
Some of you got ahead of me on that one
No Patriot Act
In pretty paper
That don’t make it
A Christmas present
You can call a toad
A cocker spaniel
That won’t warm your heart
When he licks your nose
I’ve been saying “shit” too much
I gotta stop saying “shit” so much
‘cause there might be children who don’t their parents to hear
The word “shit” so much
So I decided
That every time I’m tempted to say the word “shit”
I’m gonna say “Patriot Act”
And people will pretty much know what I mean
I just stepped in Patriot Act
I hate it when I step in Patriot Act
‘cause the Patriot Act is a hard thing to undo
Once it’s on your shoe
Is it more patriotic
To uphold the Constitution and burn the flag
Than to hold up the flag
And burn the Constitution
And burn the Constitution … right
Some of you got ahead of me on that one
No Patriot Act
