Courtesy of Catie, who suggested this by the Amboy Dukes as the anthem of the United States of Wingnuttia:
Leave your cares behind come with us and find
The pleasures of a journey to the center of the mind
Come along if you care
Come along if you dare
Take a ride to the land inside of your mind
Beyond the seas of thought beyond the realm of what
Across the streams of hopes and dreams where things are really not
Come along if you care...
But please realise you'll probably be surprised
For it's the land unknown to man
Where fantasy is fact
So if you can, please understand
You might not come back
Come along if you care
Come along if you dare
Take a ride to the land inside and you'll see
How happy life could be if all of mankind
Would take the time to journey to the center of the mind
Would take the time to journey to the center of the mind
Center of the mind
Any other proposals? Imagine the wealth of ideas hiding in songs that seemed to suggest something quite different at one point.
Then there's the crucial question of the flag. Should the stars be replaced by crosses? Or should we start from scratch and design something in the skull-and-crossbones style, perhaps with crosses closing the eyes and the mouth? Your ideas?
And the clothing! Women must wear flowered dresses with aprons, natch. But should they wear scarves on their heads or not? And what should believing manly men wear?
