Presidential Rag

You said you didn't know

That the cats with the bugs were there

And you never go along

With that kind of stuff no where



But that just isn't the point, man

That's the wrong, wrong way to go

If you didn't know about that one

Well, then what else don't you know



You said that you were lied too

Well, that ain't hard too see

But you must have been fooled again

By your friends across the sea



And maybe you were fooled again

By your people here at home

Because nobody could talk like you

And know what's going on



Nobody elected your family

And we didn't elect your friends

No one voted for your advisors

And nobody wants amends



You're the one we voted for

So you must take the blame

For handing out authority

To men who were insane



You say its all fixed up now

You've got new guys on the line

But you had better remember this

While you still got the time



Mothers still are weeping

For their boys that went to war

Father still are asking

What the whole damn thing was for



And people still are hungry

And people still are poor

And an honest week of work these days

Don't feed the kids no more



Schools are still like prisons

'Cuz we don't learn how to live

And everybody wants to take

Nobody wants to give



Yes, you will be remembered

Be remembered very well

And if I live a long life

All the stories I could tell



A many who are in, in poverty

Of sickness and of grief

Hell yes, you will be remembered

Be remembered very well



You said you didn't know that the

That the cats with the bugs were there

You'd never go along

With that kind of stuff no where



But that just isn't the point, man

That's the wrong, wrong way to go

You didn't know about that one

Well, then what else don't you know
