A Political Song
Words & Music - Uncle Ted's Garage ©2002

Sunshine and rainbows...
Lipstick and candy
And bombs flying over my head
A shrub in the White House
Resident junkie
I can't pull my ass out of bed

And what's the the matter with Susie?
I hear she lost her head in Reno
Got caught in a terrible mess
A one-armed bandit slayed her
And not quite an hour later
We find her, buried in debt

Ain't it grand? - This big happy 'ol world
We're living in
A clean pair of jeans- a bullet-proof vest
And a note, addressed to my next of kin

Starshine and moonbeams
Cell phones and pagers
And raves pumping right up till dawn
Pacifier online... baby's gotta unwind
If it's natural, how can it be wrong

Let's give a hand to Mikey...
On the mount...tackling Moses
The N.R.A. caught in his sights
Corporation welfare... Politicians don't care
Just maybe, he's got it right

Ain't it grand? - This big happy 'ol world
We're living in
A clean pair of jeans- a bullet-proof vest
And a note, addressed to my next of kin

Sunshine and rainbows...
Lipstick and candy
And bombs flying over my head
A shrub in the White House
Resident junkie
I can't pull my ass out of bed
