I pushed a button and elected him to office and uh

He pushed a button and it dropped a bomb

You pushed a button and could watch it on the television

Those motherfuckers didn't last too long, ha-ha

I'm sick of hearing about the haves and the have-nots

Have some personal accountability

The biggest problem with the way that we've been doing things is

The more we let you have, the less that I'll be keeping for me

Well, I used to stand for something

Now I'm on my hands and knees

Traded in my God for this one

And he signs his name with a capital T

Don't give a shit about the temperature in Guatemala

Don't really see what all the fuss is about

Ain't gonna worry 'bout no future generations and uh

I'm sure somebody gonna figure it out

Don't try to tell me how some power can corrupt a person

You haven't had enough to know what it's like

You're only angry 'cause you wish you were in my position

Now nod your head because you know that I'm right, alright

Well, I used to stand for something

But forgot what that could be

There's a lot of me inside you

Maybe you're afraid to see

Well, I used to stand for something

Now I'm on my hands and knees

Traded in my God for this one

And he signs his name with a capital T
