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