For anyone who hasn't heard this song, it is from the movie Team America; a movie about puppets fighting terrorism. Yes, in a public space, they are playing music from a movie that has puppets doing explicit sex scenes. Anyway, the song is a tongue-in-cheek mockery of the patriotic country songs that came out after 9/11. The chorus is something like this:
Freedom isn't free
It costs folks like you and me
And if we don't all chip in
We'll never pay that bill
Freedom isn't free
No, there's a hefty fee.
And if you don't throw in your buck 'o five
Who will?
It costs folks like you and me
And if we don't all chip in
We'll never pay that bill
Freedom isn't free
No, there's a hefty fee.
And if you don't throw in your buck 'o five
Who will?
While we're listing to this song, all I can think is "Does anyone else really know what this song is about?" I mean, it's almost like hearing "Eat It" by Wierd Al Yankovic playing in place of elevator music. Either the people who pick out the music for the grocery store 1) don't know English 2) don't get irony or sarcasm or 3) have an incredible sense of irony and are the funniest people in El Salvador.
Whatever the reasons, the comedy gods were in full effect that day and turned a rather dull day into yet another unpredictable travel event. Freedom may not be free, but comedy is.



We're silly and adventurous, computer geeks and yoga peeps.
