Lyrics:
Grandma got indefinitely detained now coming home to visit Christmas Eve You could say she had a right to counsel but some folks in the Congress disagree
She was flying home to our house when she got checked by TSA thought she might be Abdulmutallab when they looked at her X-ray
Her hair had recently been colored she paid cash for her Christmas gifts two things apparently the Congress says just might make you a terrorist
Grandma got indefinitely detained now coming home to visit Christmas Eve you could claim there's no right to due process but check the 5th amendment and you'll see
They say they need to have these powers to help protect this free country but if it takes these steps to do so what is it we are protecting?
Now she's an enemy combatant as if that makes any sense the only thing that she's combating is her unpredictable incontinence
Grandma got indefinitely detained now trying to come visit Christmas Eve they took her rights in order to…protect rights.. the most genius plan ever in history
Grandma got indefinitely detained now never made it home on Christmas day she always wanted to live in Miami at least now she's 90 miles away
