Work consumes too much time
It is this century’s crime
Wages wither as prices soar
Causing a popular uproar
Dad works eighteen hour days
Because of all the bills he pays
So that mom may stay home
Until the children have all grown
The president wants to change the law
So his boss won’t have to pay anymore
Overtime to this man
This is GW’s plan
Trickle down economics
Don’t put money in his pockets
The president preaches family values
As he reduces a family’s power
To support itself on one income
All we want is some
Time to spend with our kids
As we remember the things we did
With our dad when we were young
A game played or a song sung
Please hear our cries today
So that a family may
Have some value in this day and age
It is an American outrage
- Free America
- Happiness
- It’s a twenty first century cluster fuck
- The Times We Live in 2001
