What the Patriot Act really means: not too much, but every day..
Give up a little more freedom each day
Give up a little more freedom each day
It's freedom we're fighting for anyway
So give up a little more
And then a little more
Give up more freedom each day

Give up the right to have privacy
For national security
Intelligence takes priority
So give up your privacy

Give up having freedom of speech
There's power in words, and words have reach
Beware what you practice or you preach
Give up freedom of speech
Ah. come on

Give up a little more freedom each day
Give up a little more freedom each day
It's freedom we're fighting for anyway
So give up a little more
And then a little more
Give up more freedom each day

Give up racial equality
Profiling is a necessity
We can't tell our friends
from our enemy
So give up equality

Give up free assembly
There's danger of conspiracy
Au revoir, Community
And being with friends
Well, that's just got to end

Give up a little more freedom each day
Give up a little more freedom each day
It's freedom we're fighting for anyway
So give up a little more
And then a little more
Give up more freedom each day

Give up no unwarranted search
It puts the C.I.A. in a lurch
Maybe you're hiding bombs in that church
Say hello to John Birch (1)

Give-up not-being detained without cause
They don't need proof you've broken laws
I hear they're holding Santa Claus –
"Man on roof with big sack
Must be planning attack!"


Give up a little more freedom each day
Give up a little more freedom each day
It's freedom we're fighting for anyway
So give up a little more
And then a little more
Give up more freedom each day

Yes, give up a little more
And then a little more
Give up more freedom each day.
