When the President talks to God |
|
When the president talks to God Does he ever think that maybe he's not?
Have you heard of the band Bright Eyes? Pretty much Conner Oberst, writing lyrics, singing, guitar, etc. with a full band behind him. Anyway, I just heard this song and thought, geez, this guy should be, if he isn't, a DUer.
BRIGHT EYES LYRICS
"When The President Talks To God"
When the president talks to God Are the conversations brief or long? Does he ask to rape our women’s' rights And send poor farm kids off to die? Does God suggest an oil hike When the president talks to God?
When the president talks to God Are the consonants all hard or soft? Is he resolute all down the line? Is every issue black or white? Does what God say ever change his mind When the president talks to God?
When the president talks to God Does he fake that drawl or merely nod? Agree which convicts should be killed? Where prisons should be built and filled? Which voter fraud must be concealed When the president talks to God?
When the president talks to God I wonder which one plays the better cop We should find some jobs. the ghetto's broke No, they're lazy, George, I say we don't Just give 'em more liquor stores and dirty coke That's what God recommends
When the president talks to God Do they drink near beer and go play golf While they pick which countries to invade Which Muslim souls still can be saved? I guess god just calls a spade a spade When the president talks to God
When the president talks to God Does he ever think that maybe he's not? That that voice is just inside his head When he kneels next to the presidential bed Does he ever smell his own bullshit When the president talks to God?
I doubt it

4. I like Fleetwood Mac's version |

Now, when I talked to God I knew he’d understand He said, stick by me and I’ll be your guiding hand But don’t ask me what I think of you I might not give the answer that you want me to
Oh well

Great question.
But * doesn't talk to God, obviously. * believes HE himself is the only higher power who matters.
I wish God would pound his face.
