Best Damned Government That Money Can Buy

People always whinin bout politics, some say the president's a fool,
Most folks complain about taxes and how they have to follow all the rules,
Everybody's crabbin bout congress, judges are corrupt, no doubt,
Still, when election time comes around, ain't too many gettin' voted out,
Rich folks keep gettin higher, poor folks sinkin lower down,
Middle class runnin on a treadmill, lotsa homeless people in the town,
Everybody's waitin for a miracle, thinkin someone else'll pull the switch,
'Stead of standin up and askin for better, most folks just sit and bitch,

That's 'cause the sun comes up and the day begins for the lion and the wolf and the lamb,
And the wind don't care who's in charge today or who's gonna rule in the land,
The plain fact is when you're talkin power there are some folks that reach for the sky,
And because we let them walk on us we got the best damned government that money can buy.

Next time you're walkin down the sidewalk or drivin down the highway in your car,
Pay some attenton to the scenery, get a better idea where you are,
Is this the place that you wanted to be when you were just an innocent kid,
Are you doin the things that you wanted to do, Are you proud of the things you did?
'Cause time's movin on, it ain't stoppin, Now's the only time to make your mark,
Maybe it's okay to ask a question, bring a little light into the dark,
Oh, are you waitin' round for a miracle, thinkin someone else'll pull the swtich,
'Stead of standin up and askin for better, do you just sit around and bitch?

That's 'cause the sun comes up and the day begins for the lion and the wolf and the lamb,
And the wind don't care who's in charge today or who's gonna rule in the land,
You see, the plain fact is when you're talkin power there are some folks that reach for the sky,
And because we let them walk on us we got the best damned government that money can buy.
