Dumb

Taxing the poor, because we need cash,
but not cutting taxes for the upper class.
Doing it for years, their was nothing learn,
we want more money, even to burn.

Watching the stock market hit the ground.
Hearing the unemployed people having a cow.
People losing their jobs is what they fear,
because they can't live off unemployment year after year.

Man I don't know, where the money goes.
But it sure goes fast, just like that.
We are Congressmen, who don't have a clue,
and wonder were all the tax dollars had went too.
Had lot of excuses for the things that we had done.
We were lazy, we were crazy, we were mostly, Dumb.

You can find poverty has been taking a climb,
and watch on T.V. the U.S. deficit is soaring high.
How this is happening, we just can't explain.
But screwing up allot is one thing that is not going to change.

Man I don't know, where the money goes.
But it sure goes fast, just like that.
We are Congressmen, who don't have a clue,
and wonder were all the tax dollars had went too.
Had lot of excuses for the things we had done,
We were lazy, we were crazy, we were mostly, Dumb.
Dumb,Dumb. Yeah, wish we worked harder.
Dumb, Hey, wish we were little smarter.

Man I don't know, where the money goes,
But it sure goes fast, just like that.
We are Congressmen, who don't have a clue,
and wonder were all the tax dollars had went too.
Had lot of excuses for the things that we had done,
We were lazy, we were crazy, we were mostly, Dumb.
Dumb, Wish we worked harder, and be a little smarter.

    I like it R.B. I can hear K.C. singing that song, esp. "Dumb" in place of "Young". Good points mentioned.
