Today, if Dorothy were to encounter men with no brains, no hearts, and no courage--she'd be in Washington DC, not OZ.
Here is my take on the problem of the political machine in 14 lines. Jay Speight sings.
To all the Gutless Wonders in the Senate this week, BORROWING FOUR BILLION A DAY IS NOT THE ANSWER! ....???
COURAGE AND SHAME
© 2011 Jon Hanson, lyric and melody (Jay Speight, vocal)
Let’s do something about the pretenders and the cheats
Starting with those 535 House and Senate seats
14 trillion in debt and they can’t cut a few percent?
And the White house can’t even tell us where the money went
STOP STEALING OUR MONEY, AND USING IT TO BUY VOTES
WE’RE SICK OF THE CLASS WARFARE AND THE COUNTRY IS BROKE
THE RIGHT HAS NO COURAGE AND THE LEFT HAS NO SHAME
AND FOLKS LIKE ME ARE SICK OF THIS....GAME
We trusted you to teach our children in public schools
Guess being taught by those that tax us makes us fools
You're taking our money by printing more everyday
If I happen to save a little, inflation takes it all away
CHORUS
Brigde:
Don’t come around here promising us more stuff
You have nothing except what you take from us
CHORUS + one tag
