Free Gary |
| We’re against the extradition of Gary McKinnon |
| Not letting it happen to him |
| He’s a valuable Briton, a man with a gift |
| And we’re standing around while they’re banishing him? |
| There’s the evidence, where’s the terrorist? |
| Is America pissed 'cause he damaged their image? |
| It’s hardly the baddest of sins, is it? |
| Admit it |
| Grab a pen, hand me the petition |
| To stick the extradition act in the bin |
| I’m not having that — take a fragile man from his habitat |
| As a matter of fact, such a talented hacker |
| Should have a salary at NASA |
| But no salary, just a cell |
| I really think justice just as well’d be |
| Served up in Great Britain |
| Where McKinnon can be with his family |
| But apparently a British citizen |
| Isn’t considered innocent if Uncle Sam disagrees |
| Well Dan disagrees |
| I’m demanding Gary’s release |
| Put your hands up and be counted |
| 'Cause we are demanding Gary’s release |
| Free, free Gary McKinnon |
| Free, free Gary McKinnon |
| Look: I see Gmail peeping at my e-mail |
| But I doubt they’re going to see jail |
| If we let them take him, we’ve failed |
| The train to justice derailed |
| Doesn’t matter if he’s male or female |
| Disabled, Asian |
| We need to rail against the veiled pretense |
| How can we let them prevail? |
| Read the details — extradition |
| A one way system against tradition |
| If an American did it |
| He’d never be sent to prison in Britain |
| So if they reckon they’re getting McKinnon |
| They better be kidding, innit |
| Pester your local politician |
| To petition to abolish it |
| And prevent this horrible predicament |
| Use common sense, not ignorance |
| Not submission to a hegemony: |
| There’s the prisoner, now where’s the money? |
| What’s the difference |
| Has anybody got permission to wreck somebody? |
| Watch and listen: |
| So the Pentagon’s |
| Defences weren’t working as they’re meant to work |
| They were happy as Larry |
| That’s 'til Gary gathered they were hackable actually |
| And yes, he acted silly |
| But imagine if the act was military |
| He could have smashed security to pieces |
| Wreaking a national emergency |
| But he didn’t, 'cause he isn’t a criminal |
| But a fantastic Asperger’s geek |
| Free, free Gary McKinnon |
| Free, free Gary McKinnon |
| Free, free Gary McKinnon |
| Free, free Gary McKinnon |
| Yours sincerely |
| Dan Bull |
