John Mccutcheon - Ashcroft's Army lyrics

I saw him on TV last night In a suit of somber blue He said it was time for all Americans To do what we must do Take out your x-ray gla**es And your decoder rings We need ordinary people To keep an eye on things So... I wanna be in Ashcroft's Army I wanna be a spy I wanna watch my neighbor's doings Kiss your rights goodbye In this legal devolution A perfect chance for retribution Let's just can the Constitution I wanna be a spy I wanna be in Ashcroft's Army I wanna be a fed I might look like the meter man But I'm a spook instead Delivering pizza or the mail Buddy, you can never tell I'll haul your sorry a** to jail I wanna be a spy I wanna be in Ashcroft's Army I wanna be a sleuth I wanna catch some terrorists Don't worry 'bout the truth If I see you hanging 'round Wearin' a turban and your skin is brown You're gonna take a ride downtown I wanna be a spy I wanna be in Ashcroft's Army I'm gonna be a mole It's time to show the rest or my neighbors Just who's in control The Vice-President said, "Shame on you!" The Attorney General said it too "Don't you question what we do!" I wanna be a spy I wanna be in Ashcroft's Army I wanna a G-Man He used to be a Senator But now he is a free man He's a Attorney General instead 'Cause the people of Missouri said "We'd rather vote for a guy who's dead!" I wanna be a spy I wanna be in Ashcroft's Army But still I've gotta wonder Where was all this spying When Adelphia went under When Enron ran off with the loot And Worldcom went right down the chute Some terrorists wear pin-striped suits I wanna be a spy
