The rich get richer And the poor get *******. That’s my definition Of the common word: ‘lewd’. The richest country In the whole world today And we can’t make crooks In politics go away.
We could feed everyone And give them a home free With what the military Pays in armorer’s fees. We could use the cash We waste to wage the wars To rebuild our highways And our bridges once more.
We could fix the laws So politicians don’t get rich And make it legal To fire a crooked sunsabitch. We change thing easily So one issue got one bill And declare this horse trading As antique and over the hill.
Then make sure everyone Was covered for insurance And give our veterans Comfortable benefit assurance. We’d have enough money To do some helpful research To knock crooked companies Off their comfortable evil perch.
We could stop sending cash To countries that are bad guys Then stop using rhetoric That is a xenophobic disguise. We could do all this stuff In a matter of a few short years And make sure our children No longer have to live in fear.
