You Will Be Watched Covertly
John Ashcroft sings the praises of the proposed Terrorism Information & Protection System (TIPS)
(Sung to the tune of "Someone To Watch Over Me" by Frank Sinatra)

(instrumental intro)
 
If you're patriotic, help me to find
Subversives to hold - be loyal and blind.
Deputizing several million's not far behind.

They'll be everywhere, so don't get upset.
Don't say it's unfair, or you will regret!
You are not allowed to think bad of our dragnet!

When TIPS becomes official by Uncle Sam,
We'll have powers of a leopard to prey on the lamb...

Don't be sticking up for democracy.
No slope will be too slippery or free.
You will be watched covertly.

I don't give a damn 'bout doin' as I should.
I'm misunderstood - my way's always good.
You will be watched covertly.

Don't need democracy - what dissidents think of.
So pledge to do your part; help me oversee...

I'll do as I please, whatever I need.
If you don't heed, don't try to plead.
You will be watched covertly.

Don't need democracy - what dissidents think of.
So pledge to do your part; help me oversee...

I'll do as I please, whatever I need.
If you don't heed, don't try to plead.
You will be watched covertly.

(instrumental ending)
