Every night I pray to God
And thank the heavens up above
That someone's watching over me, oh yeah
And each night I lay down my head
I fall asleep, so grateful that
The Lord above has given me this gift
I know I'm not alone
Cause they wiretapped my phone
God bless the NSA
They're here to keep us safe
But never mind the cameras
Shooting at your face
Trust me when I say
We're gonna be okay
Cause they gotta lotta freedom
But not a lotta faith
God bless the NSA
God bless the NSA
God bless the NSA
God bless the NSA
I used to be so scared at night
Until I saw those watchful eyes
Photograph my front yard from the sky
And when I play on my guitar
My audience ain't very far
They're jamming in the black van just outside
They protect our rights
Just like cancer saves our lives
God bless the NSA
They're here to keep us safe
But never mind the cameras
Shooting at your face
Trust me when I say
We're gonna be ok
Cause they gotta lotta freedom
But not a lotta faith
God bless the NSA
God bless the NSA
God bless the NSA
God bless the NSA
And maybe I'm a pessimist
For thinking that what's best for us
Is national arrest
Because don't you know not long ago
Totalitarian ego
Almost built utopia
God bless the NSA
They're here to keep us safe
But never mind the cameras
Shooting at your face
Trust me when I say
We're gonna be ok
Cause they gotta lotta freedom
But not a lotta faith
God bless the NSA
Evil's kept at bay
Never-mind the freedoms
That they take away
Just smile and obey
Better watch the words you say
We're the freest jail I know
Man the home of the caged
God bless the NSA
God bless the NSA
God bless the NSA
I always wanted a big brother
Watching over me
