Last night at the closing keynote session for Netroots Nation, we were entertained by the fabulous singer-songwriter Jill Sobule (her official site is here), who wrote this song especially for the convention.

It's not safe for work. But it may well become a progressive anthem for the 2012 election cycle.

I met Jill briefly, and she said she's a big C&L fan. Well, here's back atcha, Jill.

Here's the lyric:

They say we want our America back

Our America back

Our America back

When they say we want our America back

What the f--k do they mean?

Remember the Garden of Eden

Before Eve hung out with that snake?

You could walk down the street

And not worry about thieves

All the kids could go trick or treating

Then those foreigners started comin' in

Like those Germans in 1790

Then the Irish arrived, the potato blight

The neighborhood started changing

Life was better

We lived right

Life had a paler shade of white

When they say we want our America back

We want our America back

Before there was Ellis Island

And that statue we got from the French

And that's whore's still alerting

The strangers she's flirting

Inviting them into our beds

The Guineas, the coolies, the wetbacks, the Jews

The gays and the terrorists

And who let in that woman looks after my kids

And the one who is cleaning my nest

Life was righteous

Life was clean

Send them back including me

When they say they want our America back

Our America back, our America back

When they say they want our America back

What the f--k does it mean?

Before the gays had the agenda

Before the slaves were free

Before that man from Kenya

Took the presidency

We want our America back

Our America back

Our America back

When they say they want our America back

What the f--k do they mean?
