something i wish i had the chance to say to mr bush
PINK LYRICS
"Dear Mr. President"
(feat. Indigo Girls)
Dear Mr. President,
Come take a walk with me.
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me.
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly.
What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street?
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep?
What do you feel when you look in the mirror?
Are you proud?
How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why?
Dear Mr. President,
Were you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
How can you say
No child is left behind?
We're not dumb and we're not blind.
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell.
What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine.
How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye?
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Oh
How do you sleep at night?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Dear Mr. President,
You'd never take a walk with me.
Would you?

WriterUnderAttack on July 15, 2007I commpletely agree with you on your beliefs. I my opinon (No offense to anyone deeply religious who might read this) but it's all these really reliious people who are making a big deal about this, and there always saying how people would only open there eyes to Allah, God or all the other main higher being's out there, but they need to open their own eyes to other's belief's and lives, and not judge others just because they believe that what others are doing is unethical.
And it's driving me MAD!!!!! -
Kimojuno : Rights of the people. on June 11, 2007"I’m not saying that you should like the way the gay community has chosen to live because that’s all to ones perception and religion, all I’m saying is to either accept or leave them be. Its not a hard concept I just wish people could see it."
*claps* Well said and well worded, I agree with you 100%!
