In'Dependence Day

What's the fourth of July but just another day.
Back in 1776, they signed some papers,
But since then, there's been significant change,
And the government is doing all these expensive capers.

So what is the day of independence?
Just about every country seems to have one
Except countries that already had it,
Or don't have it yet, or are done.

It's more a day to spend with those
Whom you love and cherish,
And be thankful that you're free of sadness
And be thankful they don't perish.

Even if I'm not going to a park
And elbow wrestling hicks to get a view
Of some loud explosions in the sky,
At least I still have you.
