| Now I got to talk about some of these politicians
|
| Sure got my world in a sorry condition
|
| They say one thing, but they mean another
|
| That’s a very worrisome thing, my brother
|
| Say they talking clear, but it sure sound hazy
|
| Ain’t doin' nothin' but drivin' 'ol Dubb crazy
|
| Can’t balance a budget, but can spend my money
|
| You tell me of something goin' on funny
|
| Sometimes I think they’re just educated fools
|
| Ain’t doin' much to help the schools
|
| City schools just slidin' in ruin
|
| And sometimes I wonder, do they know what they doin'?
|
| Would you get my BB Gun?
|
| No, I don’t want to kill 'em
|
| But I sure would like to hurt 'em some
|
| Noe, to raise money they got the lottery
|
| But that’s a lot of slippin' and slidin' if you ask me
|
| The money’s funny and the change is strange
|
| 'Cause it ain’t nothin' but a new numbers game
|
| Out on the streets, you know what I’m talkin' about
|
| You see, the odds always in favor of the house
|
| And every week you put your little twenty dollars in
|
| And they grinnin' in your face, 'cause it so hard to win
|
| They say the lottery was gonna help the schools
|
| That’s what they promised it would do
|
| But they cuttin' arts 'cause money is so tight
|
| And I got to wonder, how do they sleep at night?
|
| , you get my BB Gun
|
| No, I don’t want to kill 'em
|
| But I sure would like to hurt 'em some
|
| We’re the richest country, but we got kids that don’t eat
|
| Vietnam War veterans still begging the street
|
| Politician say he got to make more cuts
|
| But you think his salary is something he’d touch?
|
| Health care, now that’s a mess
|
| They ain’t done much to help that yet
|
| Politician say, don’t' worry there gonna be better days
|
| And I must start working on it as soon as I vote myself a raise
|
| Now, there’s a way to get out of this joke
|
| We need all the people to get out and vote
|
| Don’t sit on a couch, watch the news and complain
|
| You got to get off your butt if you gonna implement change
|
| But in the meantime, would you get my BB Gun
|
| No, I don’t want to kill 'em
|
| But I sure would like to hurt 'em some
|
| Now folks those are just my views
|
| And you’re entitled to your views too
|
| 'Cause in America, we still got the right to choose
|
| And that’s why I wrote «Dubb's Talkin' Politician Blues» |
