LYRICS
GIMMIE
Give me trade routes Western,
Mistaken India.
Follow the Trail of Tears,
Start in Siberia.
Give me hills lined with gold,
Take it from Mexico.
Manifest Destiny,
How come you didn’t know?
Gimmie! Gimmie! Gimmie!
But gimmie never got.
Forever wanting more,
Not knowing when to stop.
Give me Citizenship,
I’ll become your enclave.
Life, liberty, pursuit,
But Jefferson had slaves.
Give me a Bill of Rights,
George Mason would request.
If you can’t get it right,
Then simply try your best.
Gimmie! Gimmie! Gimmie!
But gimmie never got.
Forever wanting more,
Not knowing when to stop.
Give me the chance to choose,
Separate Church and State.
Freedom of religion
Is still under debate.
Give me conscious leaders,
With noetic reason.
No Benedict Arnold,
Or Boston Tea treason.
Gimmie! Gimmie! Gimmie!
But gimmie never got.
Forever wanting more,
Not knowing when to stop.
Give me security
From your vendetta war.
Read all of my e-mail,
Just check your carnivore.
Give me some privacy,
Incomplete with wire taps.
John Ashcroft can tell you
How a Patriot Acts.
Gimmie! Gimmie! Gimmie!
But gimmie never got.
Forever wanting more,
Not knowing when to stop.
Mistaken India.
Follow the Trail of Tears,
Start in Siberia.
Give me hills lined with gold,
Take it from Mexico.
Manifest Destiny,
How come you didn’t know?
Gimmie! Gimmie! Gimmie!
But gimmie never got.
Forever wanting more,
Not knowing when to stop.
Give me Citizenship,
I’ll become your enclave.
Life, liberty, pursuit,
But Jefferson had slaves.
Give me a Bill of Rights,

If you can’t get it right,
Then simply try your best.
Gimmie! Gimmie! Gimmie!
But gimmie never got.
