Indigo Girls - White House Blues lyrics

I wrote a letter to my senator Came back address unknown Put a call in to the president He wouldn't come to the phone Now how in the hell can a person Feel safe and secure at home When all the decisions are being made By big boys getting stoned Now i've been listening and watching Looks like somethings caught in the gears I can't seem to find a groove There's something going on around here Yeah So took a train to the white house Wrote this song on the way I knocked at the oval office I sure of what i had to say Well they looked at me kind of funny Asked me what group i was with I said i come on my own to represent The group that don't take no sh** Now i've been listening and watching Looks like somethings caught in the gears I can't seem to find a groove There's something going on around here Yeah What's wrong in the company Words been going down He's jepardizing the future So he can get what he wants right now Said level the mountains for gold Fill up the sea with iron What the hell jesus is coming And the waiting is making me tired Now i've been listening and watching It looks like somethings caught in the gears I can't seem to find a groove There's something going on around here Hey mr. nunn sir Please tell me this Why do you boys engage In p**nographic bliss Up and down to boulevards Of military towns T & a and cheap hotels For them to throw down It's a release they say It's the american way It's not a soldiers preference That makes him wrong or right It's how he lives and how he acts That makes him serve his country right Now i've been listening and watching It looks like somethings caught in the gears I can't seem to find a groove There's something going on around here Yeah
