--LYRIC NOTE:::
Since writing the lyrics sung here in this video I've changed them. The lyrics sung here were written off my cuff. I've since changed:
----
"Employment, Housing and everyday tasks"

---- to

"Employment, Access, and major life tasks;"

----- ENJOY!!! ------ CELEBRATE!!! ----- REJOICE!!!
* * * * *
So many people fought in the struggle
Establishing equalities.
Years ago because we were different
We were held right down on our knees

We stood up with a new declaration
For people disabled and proud!
We changed the laws of our country;
Now we all fit into the crowd!

Three cheers the ADA's twenty!
We wish the next twenty finds
Us living in total inclusion:
Our hearts, our bodies, our minds
Our hearts, our bodies, our minds

We have a dream we've yet to make real;
So many roads yet to travel:
Employment, Access, and major life tasks;
The ADA helps to unravel.

As we look towards a time in the future
Barriers are lifted from sight
A world without discrimination;
The ADA makes the world right!!

Three cheers the ADA's twenty!
We wish the next twenty finds
Us living in total inclusion:
Our hearts, our bodies, our minds
Our hearts, our bodies, our minds
Our hearts, our bodies, our minds!

Since writing those lyrics I've changed them from what I recorded, which were written off my cuff. I changed what's sung, "Employment, Housing and everyday tasks" to "Employment, Access, and major life tasks;" 12/31/2010)
