Getting Much More Difficult By Franklin Price 11/10/2019 It's getting much more difficult When looking back to see Just what our founding fathers Meant for this changing place to be They did not plan for royalty Washington refused the crown Now the attitudes upon the Hill Would have us peons bowing down The States were all to have their rights Washington to have our backs Now all of that is centralized We can tell by Federal tax Congress was meant to represent Us all with little pay To pass along State's needs and wants That's no longer true today They're controlling from the center With but little spread around And threaten the majority If we try to make a sound Money talks and Congress listens The one percent are not the We If We the People had some common sense We'd cast our votes so they could see Vote out the life long Congressmen Our founders never planned for that They leave the low cal milk for us And skim off all the fat Many of us crying out Want a limit to their terms Elections put that in our hands Our right's to vote out all the worms If we don't do our duties And have our say at open polls Then we deserve what's now in Washington God help our foolish souls
