Dear Mister President
Dear mister 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 you head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye
and tell me why?
Dear mister President
Were 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 you house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Building a bed out of cardboard box
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
hard work
hard work
You don't know nothing 'bout hard work
hard work
oh
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 walk with head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye?
Can you even look me in the eye?
Dear mister President
You'd never take a walk with me
Would you?
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 you head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye
and tell me why?

You'd never take a walk with me
Would you?
