THE DECIDER
THE DECIDER
wall of noise song about our president. It felt good to get it out but it should be a hell of a lot longer. I just couldn’t bring myself to write another verse. I get sick thinking about him
The Decider
Hey Hey Hey he's the decider
Everything he decides is right is wrong
Hey Hey he ain't getting any wiser
Probably won't wise up till the day he's dead and gone
First things first: Don''t start a fucking war
If you do figure out what you're fighting it for
Don't start things off based on some lies
don't dishonor those you've sent to die
Just because you're the president
doesn’t mean you can be an incompetent
You don't know it all - Hell, you don't know anything
chorus
Secondly we've got a government
that's been described as a great big tent
Make damn sure that everyone gets in
Not just those who cheat to win
Abrhamoff's bulging wallet
It's corruption man that's what I'm gonna call it
But oh that's right - you have no shame
Hey Hey Hey he's the decider
Everything he decides is right is wrong
Hey Hey he ain't getting any wiser
Probably won't wise up till the day he's dead and gone
And I can't wait that long
Thought I'd write him this song
Help him figure out right from wrong
I can’t wait that long
Thought I'd write him this song
Help him figure out right from wrong
There's so much shit I don't know where to begin
What to leave out what to fit in
Abu Ghraib... now torture's legal
Cheney, Rumsfeld are they dumb or evil
Walter Reed, our veterans hurting
record profits for Halliburton
If killing's our business then business is good
Someday somewhere under a sky so blue
We'll begin to forget all about you
We'll forget that stupid smirk
We'll do the hard work that you shirked
Then we'll elect a different millionaire
Who's convinced us he's a guy who really cares
and maybe he does - and maybe not.
Hey hey hey we're the deciders
Everything we decide is right is wrong
