How 'bout them fireworks?
Pretty cool huh? Ever wonder why we shoot 'em off on the Fourth? It's cause we're celebrating our freedom. It's because we're Americans. And it's our birthday! The first three words of the Constitution We the People... We the people are celebratin' Our independence. We are the Declaration of Independence and The Star Spangled Banner up there in the sky. We are the Rocket's Red Glare, the Bombs Bursting in Air. We are The Fourth of July! We are The Pledge of Allegiance we say to our flag the Stars and Stripes Forever! We are the Republic for which it stands The United States of America. Remember? We are that One Nation, under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for All and because we all live in the Land of the Free we don't have to say it at all, unless we want to. You wanta be counted? Then stand up and shout it! Make sure the whole world gets to hear it! You wanna talk Freedom? We know all about it! We are the American Spirit! I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands; One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. {The piece concludes with a montage featuring the children of American Gramaphone reciting The Pledge.} |
