Letters to the President

When we were younger, we used to sit on my porch

And talk smack about girls and professional sports

There's a lot of things I wanted to say

But never got a chance to find a wayTake a good look at all of our high schools

This is the first reason that I want to write you

It must be tough when society is messed up

Gotta save money, please don't take it out on usDo they even know?

Do they even know?If I was brave, I'd write a letter to the president

And have him pass it to the leaders of our parliament

But for now, I won't say nothing

From all the kids who would stand in my residence

Who see this letter as a statement of our innocence

But for now, I won't say nothingNow that we're older, a brand new story unfolds

About God and the laws that we've always been told

And there's a lot of things I wanted to say

But never got a chance to find a waySex marriage in a state where they don't care

Murder is wrong but the jail time's not fair

Not to mention date rape, felony and car theft

Break it down and tell me what we've got leftDo they even know?

Do they even know?If I was brave, I'd write a letter to the president

And have him pass it to the leaders of our parliament

But for now, I won't say nothing

From all the kids who would stand in my residence

Who see this letter as a statement of our innocence

As for now, I'll start with somethingTake a good look at Tommy, he's a track star

Good role model, has a chance to go real far

Then the school made a budget-cut

Cut out the track team

Now instead Tommy is a crack headSame sex marriage in a state where they don't care

Murder is wrong but the jail time's not fair

Not to mention date rape, felony and car theft

Break it down and tell me what we've got leftIf I was brave, I'd write a letter to the president

And have him pass it to the leaders of our parliament

But for now, I won't say nothing

From all the kids who would stand in my residence

Who see this letter as a statement of our innocence

As for now, I'll start with something

As for now, I'll start with something
