“All I Want From Congress” Lyrics
I don’t want a lot from Congress…
So many folks are in need…
I don’t care to have a handout.
Sick and tired of corporate greed.
Please don’t listen to the fringe.
Or pass a bill that makes us cringe.
We need you too…
Senate this is what we elected you to do….
I could use a job dear Congress.
So could all the others in need.
We can do better than the presents with one that helps the whole Country.
i don’t need an explanation of why we have to compromise.
Bet they wont’ really filibuster
I see fear in Ensign’s eyes.
We want real reform to pass.
A milestone that is sure to last.
Make our wish come true!
Senate this is what we elected you.
To do.
I won’t ask much from Congress
don’t want the deficit to grow.
Can’t afford to wait much longer.
Keep sending things to the CBO!
I made a short list and I sent it to Nelson, Landrieu, and ol’ Joe.
The catastrophic plan when you wrote, won’t get me to the gyno.
Cause I don’t think it asks for much to say we all deserve coverage.
I know this much is true…
Congress this is why we elected you.
Yeah
Oh Mr. Lieberman you’ve become a Grinch.
You almost lost your seat but this is quite a stink.
31 Million People
31 Million People
Joe it’s not too late to stop blocking the debate.
Do the right thing for the Country.
Oh I’ve got news for you dear congress. News that you just have to hear. If this bill ends up far from perfect we’ll just have to come on back next year. So pass a bill but don’t be mistaken cause our efforts will not be forsaken. Why wait another year?
Congress this is why we elected you.
