...but I would be honored if someone would sing them.

Which one is your favorite?

AMERICAN PIE

It seems not long ago
With my schoolmates I had read of
What some very brave men did
The teachers had said that we'd hear
The bell of freedom ringing clear
On tyranny we'd always keep a lid
But what we've seen we're not believing
For this great country we are grieving
All our hearts are breaking
They're heavy and they're aching
We saw a sham, the evil tyrant's tried
Senators faced their Arkanside
We felt hollow deep inside
The day that justice died

So bye, bye, my America, bye
You've a soul that's lost, oh what a cost, the truth they deny
And dangerous men have laughed so hard that they cry
Singing they have watched America die
They have watched America die

Do you know he'd kill to be winning
And that was his plan from beginning
Some of us had told you so
And do you believe that there is an anti-Christ
Who'd come to us without a price
Have you now learned the things you need to know
We've all seen how some have worshipped him
And they've all gone way out on a limb
Of his crimes they would be forgiving
What a horrible way to be living
Oh, I was a radio voice who had screamed out loud
And for what was right I'm gladly standing up proud
But I could never fight off that whole damn crowd
The day that justice died

I was thinking, bye, bye, my America, bye
You've a soul that's lost, oh what a cost, the truth they deny
And dangerous men have laughed so hard that they cry
Singing they have watched America die
They have watched America die

For eight years there's no law and order
And drugs have flowed across our border
Do you think he really cares
With his cartel good buddies he's splitting loot
It's billions and his voice was mute
At all our drug laws he just scoffs and stares
As we all had watched that senseless vote
"Starr would not touch us" they're quick to gloat
All the real crimes had still been hidden
Yes, the talk of Mena's forbidden
While some had been pleading so hard that the crimes were real
At the money altar all the pagans would kneel
And the New World Order had gained its appeal
The day that justice died

I was thinking, bye, bye, my America, bye
You've a soul that's lost, oh what a cost, the truth they deny
And dangerous men have laughed so hard that they cry
Singing they have watched America die
They have watched America die

The network brass kept up their sinning
And without conscience, went on spinning
That began some time ago
Did you understand they had been spiking news
Did you catch on to all the clues
And when did your suspicion start to grow
They tried telling people what to think
But some recognized the awful stink
They stood up as strongest debaters
But they're labeled as Clinton haters
Those who got it would be the targets of their abuse
Many backed right down and said "Well what is the use"
They had jobs and they saved their own golden goose
The day that justice died

I was thinking, bye, bye, my America, bye
You've a soul that's lost, oh what a cost, the truth they deny
And dangerous men have laughed so hard that they cry
Singing they have watched America die
They have watched America die

This has been a story with a good ending
Because there are some men never bending
No, some of them would never cease
'Cause their duty they never would forget
And they spread the truth by Internet
Then there came the day their numbers would increase
While children made their origami
They had not noticed the great tsunami
It had been slowly growing
While Willy had been crowing
It had hit the land that fateful day
And in a flash, there was no delay
The evil had been swept away
King William's reign had died

We were singing
Bye bye, evil Willy, goodbye
With your wife our Constitution you thought you could defy
But you're finally caught and we will bid you goodbye
In a prison cell some day you'll both die
