Sixteen Trillion Going On Seventeen

Our debt’s sixteen trillion going on seventeen Obama it’s time to think Better beware coz your new health care Is putting us on the brink Our debt’s sixteen trillion going on seventeen No reading between the lines We are indebted and surely headed For a dreadful decline Totally unprepared are you, To cut government spending You’re unfair and narcissistic With you there’s no happy ending You need someone older and wiser Telling you what to do But seventeen trillion going on eighteen Is more your cup of brew ----------------------- I owe sixteen trillion going on seventeen I know that I’m naïve Cronies I meet tell me I’m sweet And willingly we deceive I owe sixteen trillion going on seventeen Innocent of why that rose I think it was Bush giving me dirty looks My how my nose grows Totally unprepared am I To face a world of reality Crafty and sly and scared am I If they learn the truth about me I need someone older and wiser But don’t tell me what to do Coz seventeen trillion going on eighteen Is in store for all of you.
