The Nanny State
Welcome to the Nanny State
Where what you eat and what you do.
What hand you use to masturbate
Is dictated to you.
The Government and do gooders
They have surveys and studies to prove
That free will is hazardous to your health
After all you don’t know what’s good for you.
Don’t attempt to question their wisdom
It’s your health and safety they protect.
They’re working in your best interest.
Just do as your told, like a good little subject.
Welcome to the America
This country used to be free.
Before Liberals and slack jawed politicians
Decided your nanny, they would be.
