AMERICAN APATHY

America is on the path to recovery; we hear it every day

We are climbing out of the hole; that’s what Obama say

The stimulus money was a great idea; a savior for us all

We’re headed for good times, the best we can recall

 

 

 

Never mind unemployment reaching toward double digits

Never mind on-going legislation mostly proposed by idiots

There’s reform going on in every circle, cranny, and nook

We’re changing America and we’re throwing away the book

 

 

 

Illegal aliens cross the border and drug trafficking we abhor

The President says there’s no way; we cannot close the door

Not with money, fences, or weapons; not men in uniform

The only way he says is through comprehensive reform

 

 

 

The President says we have no future; must pass Cap & Trade

It is the right thing to do for the pollution that we have made

And the moratorium will stand for the offshore drilling rights

By the time he’s done energy taxes will be driven out of sight

 

 

 

The feds lay claim to all the problems as public property

There’s not room for a solution that comes from you or me

Tax dollars must be expended or the problems will not erase

So you just plan on higher taxes raised right in your face

 

 

 

Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi will carry the President’s desire

It will remain that way until the taxpayers make them all retire

Then we might get our country back with blood, toil and sweat

But by the time the voting is through, we’ll all be mired in debt

 

 

 

Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae, and ACORN suck money from our land

They’ll take and take and take from the taxpayer, any way they can

The liberals will never shut off the flow as they use it to buy votes

The theft leaves us taxpayers upstream with paddles but no boats

 

 

 

Send Congress and the President a long overdue little statement

It’s time to curb this waste, time for some public abatement

Americans are fed up; tired of being treated as blocks of cement

It’s time to get rid of Obama and this socialist malcontent

 

 

 

Obama is spreading misinformation trying to regain the vote

All he can’t blame on Bush,  he’ll have Biden attempt to float

Never mind numbers, facts; don’t get lost in all that misery

Just focus on the fact this is the summer of recovery

 

 

 

Once you’ve closed your eyes and stuck you head into the sand

It seems all is good and tranquil in this Native American land

Then you can go on with a happy life, no new worry or frustration

Just blindly go along as we become just one more socialist nation
