I guess today is Judgment Day

Since everybody's got something to say

But if all you can come up with is hate

Then turn around and march the other way

Let's take a lesson from the family tree

We share this land, but we don't all agree

You think I'm weird, I think you are crazy

But I can love you 'cause we're all family

Whoever said freedom was free?

There ain't no freedom without history

And folks who died for you and me

So don't be an asshole, let everyone be

What if everyone took a civics class?

I'm not sure I know anyone who'd pass

But how we live today comes from the past

If we forget, it could slip from our grasp

Whatever happened to the Golden Rule?

Whoever wrote it wasn't just a fool

We watch the thread unravel from the spool

When you preach love and still you act so cruel

Whoever said freedom was free?

There ain't no freedom without history

And folks who died for you and me

So don't be an asshole, let everyone be

Yeah

So let's all pile onto the freedom bus

It's not for some, that ride's for all of us

Bring Jesus, Buddha, or your old dog Gus

Whatever brings you joy and happiness

Oh

Whoever said freedom was free?

There ain't no freedom without history

And folks who died for you and me

Oh

Whoever said freedom was free?

There ain't no freedom without history

And folks who died for you and me

So don't be an asshole, let everyone be
