Ooh, there's gonna be
fireworks (fireworks!)
On the Fourth of July (red, white and blue!)
Red, white, and blue
fireworks
Like diamonds in the sky (diamonds in the sky!)
We're gonna shoot the entire
works
on fireworks
That really show, oh yeah,
We declared our liberty two hundred
years ago.
Yeah!
In 1776 (fireworks!)
There were fireworks too (red,
white, and blue!)
The original colonists,
You know their tempers blew (They really
blew!)
Like Thomas Paine once wrote:
It's only common sense (only common sense)
That if a government won't give you your basic rights
You better get another government.
And though some people tried to fight it,
Well, a committee was formed to write
it:
Benjamin Franklin, Philip Livingston,
John Adams, Roger Sherman, Thomas Jefferson,
got it done, (Oh yes they did!)
The Declaration, uh-huh-huh,
The Declaration of
independence (Oh yeah!)
In 1776 (Right on!)
The Continental Congress said that we were
free (We're free!)
Said we had the right of life and liberty,
... And the pursuit of
happiness!
Ooh, when England heard the news (Kerpow!),
They blew their stack (They
really blew their cool!),
But the colonies lit the fuse,
There'd be no turning back (no
turning back!).
They'd had enough of injustice now
But even if it really hurts, oh yeah,
If you don't give us our freedom now
You're gonna see some fireworks!
And on
the Fourth of July they signed it
And fifty-six names underlined it,
And now to honor
those first thirteen states,
We turn the sky into a birthday cake.
They got it done (Oh
yes they did!)
The Declaration, uh-huh-huh,
The Declaration of independence (Oh yeah!)
in 1776 (Right on!)
The Continental Congress said that we were free (We're free!)
Said we had the right of life and liberty,
... And the pursuit of happiness!
We hold these truths to be self evident,
That all men are created equal
And
that they are endowed by their creator
With certain unalienable rights.
That among these
are life, liberty, and the pursuit of
happiness,
And if there's one thing that
makes me happy,
Then you know that it's (ooh!)
There's gonna be fireworks | | | |
