Who wrote the songs that made detainees sing
Of terrorism plots and other things
To kill Americans like you and I
Who wrote the songs
Who wrote the songs
Pearl Jam and Jackson Browne
And Rage Against the Machine
They put the F.O.I.A. request together
They’re the writers
And they are pissed . . . because . . .
Enhanced interrogators played their songs
At painful volume all day and night long
For information whether truth or lie
Who paid the bills
Who paid the bills
We’re the taxpayers, and WE paid the bills
