So You'Re Running To Be President

So You're Running to be President
By Franklin Price

So you're running to be President
I'm here to cast my vote
I'm just one single person
Not anyone of note

I'm the one you should consider
I'm every woman every man
Who's old enough to help you
Or to throw you in the can

You're not so high and mighty
Put your pants on just like me
Want be in charge of freedom 
And freedom isn't free

Many died to keep us here
The choice of freedoms are our own
As long as we obey the laws 
We should all be left alone

Don't tell me how to live my life
That is not for you to say
Yours is to protect and represent me
You'll swear to do that every day

As President you won't be king
Was never meant to be
 You're put there to administrate
A better life for you and me

If that's not on your agenda
You will not get my vote
You will not be the President
Not wear the top hat and the coat
