Title: Homeless President
Post by: Speed Demon on July 29, 2010, 04:55:27 PM

Homeless President

The bed track was done by Hardlock. I did all the guitars and vocals, and Mr. Mom graciously provided the lyrics (slightly modified to fit). Thanks, Mom! (gender confusion abounds)

             Homeless President

I know about life, and all its hard knocks
Lived most of my life, in a cardboard box

Whatever happened, to the American Dream                     
The country is falling, apart at the seams

China came calling, and the country was broke
The politicians proved, they were all just a joke

Politicians and lawyers, headed straight for the hills
They took all the money, and left all the bills

Hey homeless president, tell us where the money went
Hey homeless president, we didn't even get a cent
Hey homeless president, won't you help us pay the rent
Hey homeless president, tell us it was all well spent

The American Dream can only be seen when you're asleep

Thanks, John. I couldn't have done it without your able assistance.

No point in doing a tune about the vice president. Nobody knows who he is, anyway.
Probably not even homeless. We should do something about that.
