Written by a good friend. My happy task, at his resquest, is to post it for DU.
A very proud SCE :D
Dear Mr. President
Dear Mr. President Oh say can’t you see The truth is self evident Even to one such as me The cauldron you stir Is full of tears, sir And it’s based on your own recipe The wolf at the door Is inside our own house And the dogs of war Are raising their doubts Is it a man or a beast That let slip the leash Will we ever figure this out
(ch) Here in the land of the free We can agree to disagree But in these times of shame We’ve only ourselves to blame Here in the home of the brave Is an empty place at the table In memory of all that they gave Freedom is just not a label
Dear Mr. President Oh say can’t you see Are you so hell-bent Just how long will it be Does the Red, White and Blue Mean anything to you You treat it so treasonously Your cause has been lost The price has been pain Was it all worth the cost Sift through the remains You’ve mastered deception Through mass misdirection What were you hoping to gain
(bridge) Did you ever stop once to think In all your years in that oval room There’s blood in your pen not ink And you been writing volumes
Dear Mr. President Oh say can’t you see The truth is self evident Even to one such as me…..
