The Patriot Act *
(featuring Tom & Bertie)

Sung to the tune "Little Brown Jug"

The wife and I we take our trips
All of which are paid for by acquaintanceships.
Ain't that legal, but what fun –
And my vote's for sale to anyone.
Ha ha ha, BYOB?
Little Gonzales, it's for free!
Ha ha ha, you will see
Little Gonzales can't catch me.

Your wife and you will shortly find
You're on another trip but won't be wined and dined.
It could be a lot of fun,
But hasn't always been for ev'ryone.
Ha ha ha? Liberty?
Little Gonzales? Te he he!
Internships? They'll be free!
Guantanamo? It's on me!
