Are you paying attention? Well you better be
Lady Liberty is opening her crown

For July 4th, man that should be fun
It's been closed since 9/11/2001

Wait - She was a gift from France
Does that make her French at all?

Everybody when you see her say "ooh la la"
Ooh la la - It's that statue of liberty - ooh la la!

Now, the Hubble telescope was in trouble
So they launched some astronauts up on the double

To fix it, and make it thirty times stronger
"Those space pics were bomb! Now they'll be bomb-er!"

Bush used to say to Americans, if you're buying heroin
Then you're like a terrorist

'Cause the Taliban are growing drugs in Afghanistan
But are those poppies popping up in Pakistan ?

Is the Taliban creeping in and packaging?
Those are some rough roads to be traveling

So just a few people know what's happening.
What else? The reporter in Iran was released

Unharmed, that's a relief
Back home, um things seem funny to me

Arizona State wouldn't give Obama a degree
He told their graduates, think not of thyself

Think of the other people who are needing your help
Oh, the other night he played comedian

For the press and members of the media
He told jokes all night on and on

About Michelle's
Second amendment right to bear arms

Cheerios has been making serious claims
That it would lower your cholesterol if eaten for days

So the new people at the FDA
Told 'em that that is something that they just can't say

Imagine if cereals made untested claims
"This one will expand your brain"

"Eat this one and look like Giselle,"
I bet that one would fly off the shelf

Week in Rap coming to you so respect yourself
Eat Flocab cereal, it's good for your health, oh!
