Lyrics
thank you for your time & for believing in the cause
i only have a minute, there's a vote on the hill
it's time to pick some fights & have it out on the floor
they want to privatize & voucherize our lives even more
once there was a man who the white house couldn't stand
you may not remember his name
as the controversy fades & the wealthy have their ways
don't let him have died in vain
in the right wing part of town i sat some people down
a cup of coffee and piece of pie we shared
we agreed on everything, wouldn't ya know:
big oil, big media, big insurance have gotta go
neither party cares about the people that i meet
the system's polluted with economic power
we're doing what we can to turn things around
now i gotta run my plane leaves in an hour
