Bright Eyes Lyrics

"When The President Talks To God" lyrics



When the president talks to God
Are the conversations brief or long?
Does he ask to rape our womens' rights
Or to send poor farm kids off to die?
Will the president recommend an oil hike
When the president talks to God?
When the president talks to God
Are the words he chooses hard or soft?
Does 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 the prison's 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
When they pick which country should we invade
And which Muslim souls still can be saved?
Yeah 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 down in the presidential bed
Does he ever smell his own bullshit
When the president talks to God?
