(For the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence
and the 37 men who signed the Constitution)
And here’s to you, Mr. Jefferson
We all miss you more than you will know
Woh woh woh
God bless you please, Mr. Madison
Heaven help these fools who legislate
Rights away
Our rights away
We’d like to know why you haven’t read all the bills you’ve filed
We’d like for you to read them for yourself
Look around you all you see are patriotic eyes
Stroll around the land the Brave and Free call home
And here’s to you, Mr. Jefferson
We all miss you more than you will know
Woh woh woh
God bless you please, Mr. Madison
Heaven help these fools who legislate
Rights away
Our rights away
Hiding all your trillion dollar debts so we don’t know
Hide it in your made up FICA trust fund
It’s a little secret just the congressmen will know
Worst of all you passed this debt on to our kids
They think we’re fools, Mr. Jefferson
We all miss you more than you will know
Woh woh woh
God bless you please, Mr. Madison
Heaven help these fools who legislate
Rights away
Our rights away
Ripping up our Constitution every afternoon
Give themselves a raise with no debate
Laughin’ at our Founding Fathers when they’ve got to choose
Everything they warned of’s comin’ true
Where have you gone Ron Wilson Reagan
A nation turns its lonely eyes to you
Woo woo woo
What’s that you say, Mr. Jefferson
The Gipper has left and gone away
And we prayed… wish he’d stayed
