O Tea-Party people, rise up now and set your sights
On the darling peak of Individual Rights!
If you'd good honest freedom regain and keep whole,
And cast off your government's unwholesome control,
If self-responsibility's the moral you desire,
And socialistic, welfaristic rules see expire,
If you love life, and your own choices matter to you,
And with dictator's whims you are totally through,
If pride of productive action, of a job well done,
You'd see with praise exalted, nor cursed by anyone,
If government would, as a friend, guard your property,
Condemn America's foes, and cut down the enemy,
If truth and honesty, integrity, and joy of right,
Would guide your politicians and fill their minds with light,
If you aspire to such a human-loving place on earth,
Then individuals must be FREE to give it birth!
O Tea-Party people, rise up now and set your sights
On the darling peak of Individual Rights!
