The government can!
Heh, who says a patriot has to support the government.
Hey everybody, gather round!
I’m here to give you anything you like!
You want free energy? College? Mortgages?
Whatever you like, you have come to the right place!
Why? I’ll tell ya why!
Who can take your money with a twinkle in their eye?
Take it all away and give it to some other guy?
The government
The government can
Who can tax the sunrise? Who can tax the trees?
Let you run a business and collect up all the fees?
The government
Oh, the government can
The government can ’cause they mix it up with lies
And make it all taste good
The government takes everything we make
To pay for all of their ‘solutions’
Healthcare, climate change, pollution
Throw away the constitution
Who can give a bailout and tell us to behave,
Make the founding fathers roll over in their grave?
The government,
The government can
The government can ’cause they mix it up with lies
And make it all taste good
The government takes everything we make
They’re power hungry and malicious
Their economics are fictitious
Soon we’ll have to eat our dishes
Who can be a failure in so many ways?
Instead of getting fired, hey, we’ll give ourselves a raise!
The government,
Oh, the government can
The government can ’cause they mix it up with lies
And make it all taste good
And your uncle sam can cause they mix it up with lies
And make it all taste good
And I feel so good, cause the government says I should!
