If Dr. Seuss could say something about all this.=20
Every U down in Uville liked U.S. a lot,=20
But the Binch, who lived Far East of Uville, did not.=20
The Binch hated U.S! The whole U.S. way!=20
Now don't ask me why, for nobody can say,=20
It could be his turban was screwed on too tight.=20
Or the sun from the desert had beaten too bright=20
But I think that the most likely reason of all=20
May have been that his heart was two sizes too small.=20
But, Whatever the reason, his heart or his turban,=20
He stood facing Uville, the part that was urban.=20
"They're doing their business," he snarled from his perch.=20
"They're raising their families! They're going to church!=20
They're leading the world, and their empire is thriving,=20
I MUST keep the S's and U's from surviving!"=20
Tomorrow, he knew, all the U's and the S's,=20
Would put on their pants and their shirts and their dresses,=20
They'd go to their offices, playgrounds and schools,=20
And abide by their U and S values and rules,=20
And then they'd do something he liked least of all,=20
Every U down in U-ville, the tall and the small,=20
Would stand all united, each U and each S,=20
And they'd sing Uville's anthem, "God bless us! God bless!"=20
All around their Twin Towers of Uville, they'd stand,=20
and their voices would drown every sound in the land.=20
"I must stop that singing," Binch said with a smirk,=20
And he had an idea--an idea that might work!=20
The Binch stole some U airplanes in U morning hours,=20
And crashed them right into the Uville Twin Towers.=20
"They'll wake to disaster!" he snickered, so sour,=20
"And how can they sing when they can't find a tower?"=20
The Binch cocked his ear as they woke from their sleeping,=20
All set to enjoy their U-wailing and weeping,=20
Instead he heard something that started quite low,=20
And it built up quite slow, but it started to grow--=20
And the Binch heard the most unpredictable thing...=20
And he couldn't believe it--they started to sing!=20
He stared down at U-ville, not trusting his eyes,=20
What he saw was a shocking, disgusting surprise!=20
Every U down in U-ville, the tall and the small,=20
Was singing! Without any towers at all!=20
He HADN'T stopped U-Ville from singing! It sung!=20
For down deep in the hearts of the old and the young,=20
Those Twin Towers were standing, called Hope and called Pride,=20
And you can't smash the towers we hold deep inside.=20
So we circle the sites where our heroes did fall,=20
With a hand in each hand of the tall and the small,=20
And we mourn for our losses while knowing we'll cope,=20
For we still have inside that U-Pride and U-Hope.=20
For America means a bit more than tall towers,=20
It means more than wealth or political powers,=20
=20
It's more than our enemies ever could guess,=20
So may God bless America! Bless us! God bless!=20
