Song for Bernie
I know that words like “integrity” are thrown around too
much
And believing in an honest man just means you’re out of
touch
But I met a man in the Vermont woods and he took me for a
walk
Said he wants to be the President, and I like the way he
talks
It used to be that a working stiff could buy himself a home
Send the children off to college, take a summer trip to Rome
But they’ve decided that the upper floor is the only one
that counts
So they leave the rest to buy food and shelter with miniscule
amounts
Have you had enough of lesser devils when you go off to
vote?
Have you had enough of bailing water from the bottom of your
boat?
Well listen up, America, there’s a way to change your fate
Pick the greater of two angels, and let’s set this country
straight
Oh it’s easy to throw up your hands and say they’re all the
same
And the way that it’s been going, I can’t say that you’re to
blame
But if you had one man to fight for you, what more could you ever want
Than to put your country in the hands of an angel from
Vermont
