For All of Us Idiots
On this warm summer-like day, outside my door
I can not ignore the facts no more
National-Inflation-recession, and the Iraq War
Just down the street, neighbors&friends lose sleep
over the subprime creep
They tried counting sheep
But, awoke broke on the cold concrete
Cursing our leaders "Them D.C. "bleep-bleep..."
Turned on the news in vain
Only to view the Reduplicates and McCain
Still running the same political blame game
With no relief at the gas pump in sight
Our "Augh Shucks" Prez is tapdancin'and singin'"Everything is going to be alright"
Switched the channel& it's the Supreme Ct. next on
The Marybury v Madison legacy, again, was trampled & stepped on
No judicial restraint in the great 2000 deception
Err, I mean, the 2000 election
We stood by with no pips, squeaks, or objections
Flipped through a few more channels on the remote
Roy Blunt sounding off on the Golden State& I'm still broke
Millions of Americans still with no health coverage & that's no joke
All the while, the VP is on the Emir's yacht practicing his fishing stroke
College for our kids is a fast fading dream
In the "New World Order" scheme of things
Have our leaders sold their souls
All to willing to wheel and deal our future over a dice roll
Still, the average American is still getting kicked to the curb
Nothing anymore is absurd
I now know for sure
I must get off the couch and make my own cure
That stimulus package went too fast
Spent it on $4.00 a gallon worth of gas
Next time I go to the store, I'll be walking my fat *ss
It's easy
The corrupt and sleazy
Left us, this time, without the Reagan cheezy
Took our money and gold
Long gone to the highest bidder, slamdunk, and sold
Why
Can't deny
Our future now resides
In foreign lands
Corporate hands in Dubai
