Story Behind The Song

After listening to Lou Dobbs, I wrote this.

Song Description

This represents what many of us feel about the our elected officials when they put corporate interests ahead of us, their actual constituency.

Lyrics

Save the USA
Andrew Bayuk
(http://andrewsongs.net)

Save us from hypocrisy.
Save us from the lies.
Save our homes from foreclosing.
Stop treating us as spies.
Save our jobs from leaving.
Bring back ?Made In USA?
Represent the ones who made you,
not the ones that pave your way.

Save us from your pay raise
while our own wages do fall.
Save us from the price of gas
While giving gifts to oil
Save us from your gridlock
And to constantly relent
You?re still on our time clock
So you?d best start represent.

Save the USA, it?s drowning in graft and lies.
Save the USA and resume the ties that bind.
Stop taking all our money and shipping it offshore.
Do the job that you?re elected for.

All it takes to change your ways
Is reminding what you?re for.
Stop crapping where you eat,
and start sweeping up the floor
of the ones that you do represent
and whose fates you realize.
If you?re here to serve the public
then its time to stop the lies.
If you?re here to represent
then listen to our cries.

What will all your friends think
if you finally do it right?
Will they think you?ve lost your sanity?
Or a screw?s loose in your mind?
Or might they finally remember
what a politicians for?
To help the ones they represent
and stop acting like a whore

Save the USA, it?s drowning in greed and lies.
Save the USA and resume the ties that bind.
Stop taking all our money and shipping it to war.
Do the job that you?re elected for.
Do the job that you?re elected for.
Do the job that you?re elected for.
