Drones Keeping Flying Overhead

Those Drones Keep Flying Overhead
(To the tune of "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head" with apology to B.J. Thomas, Hal David and Burt Bacharach)

Those drones keep flying overhead
And they’re watching me with cams and high tech infrared,
Doesn’t seem quite right,
All those drones keep flying overhead, they keep flyin’

So I just did me some talking to the man
And I said I didn’t like the looks of this whole plan,
Spying on us folks,
All those drones keep flying overhead, they keep flyin’

But there's one thing I know
Those drones they send above to spy me can do much more than simply eye me
and maybe they’ll be authorized to atomize me

Those drones keep flying overhead
But that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red
Crying’s not for me
'Cause I'm never gonna stop the drones by complaining

Because I'm free
Nothing's worrying me…
