Mitch Daniels
Mitch Daniels was the governor of Indiana Now he is the president of Purdue But back when he was governor he asked his staff To look into what they might be able to do He said now that this old man has kicked the bucket Can we finally stop taking it on the chin? Can we find an excuse, whatever one will work To ban all the books of Howard Zinn
I want to ban them, he said, from the libraries I want to ban them from each curriculae Ban them from the grade schools, ban them from the high schools Ban them from each college syllabae And quietly the books started disappearing There in the heartland of the free But, oops, now we know, because his emails are public And were discovered by a reporter from AP
They're banning books in Indiana The governor wants to censor what you read Because a patriotic history of half-truths and lies Is all the history you need もっと沢山の歌詞は ※ Mojim.com
The story hit the presses, at least a bit And Mitch Daniels then denied the truth Which is funny because that's just like the diet of nonsense Mr. Daniels would feed to the youth American democracy is the best in the world And everything is going according to plan And any pesky historians who want to expose that crap It's time to burn and censor and ban!
Because students can't handle reality It needs to be bleached and masticated Red, white and blue are the colors for Mitch Shades of grey are too complicated Columbus discovered America, it's the world's best democracy And America always wins And if sometimes things don't quite go the way they should Jesus will forgive our sins
