AMERICAN APATHY
By: Wayne Brown
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
