African President

When I fail to perform I blame the system and form The society, the community Blame it on my friends And life’s old trends Blame it on my providence Blame it on outside influence Blame it on the citizens Blame the populace Blame history, blame the past Blame everyone quick and fast Blame the mountains and the hills Blame the waters and the seas Blame the gods Blame the skies Blame the powers that be Blame everyone but me Because all I want is another term
