Lyrics
We The People intro: 1st verse So you think you wanna be a president Sit on our throne and represent You've studied real hard and learned all the rules You've trained with the masters and got the right moves You've practiced your speeches and slicked back your hair Remember to smile and look like you care Well just a reminder we've seen this before chorus 1 If you try to play us Your out the door We wont get played no more Just so you know 2cd verse Let us assure you that this ain't no game No roll of your dice,not your fortune or fame It's about people yes both black and white Cause red white or blue together we stand and fight We're not gonna let no more con-men get through So don't even try it cause we're watching you It's happened before and it can happen again We'll build us some gallows and you will meet your end chorus 2 We wont get fooled again Just so you know 3rd verse When you say you want to represent Make sure that you realize our patience grows thin Our children are hungry the jobs came and went Our soldiers are dying to swear you in You must understand we've seen all this before We're tired of the bull sh** wont take anymore Best heed to this warning and do what you say We give you the power we can take it away Cause this is our future best watch what you do Cause its for our children and their children too So don't you dare play us no don't even try We'll cut us some rope and we'll hang you up real high! chorus 3 We wont get fooled again So don't even try ..................................................................................................................................Copyright 2011 ..................................................................................................................................Danny Horton

Danny this is outstanding. The message, the production, the haunting, almost threatening guitar -flawless.

Great tune Danny, telling it like it is in a very direct and truthful manner. The web of power it takes to become president in this nation weeds out many of the free thinkers that would be more likely to evoke change. We're very proud of you for trying to make a real difference. Your songwriting, delivery, and production are all top notch, this one needs to be heard by the masses!

its amazing how the little people die and suffer as the powerful hunger for more power and wealth. down through the centuries its the same old song with new voices to sing the lies. change has to come to the soul of every man. got a millenium or two?
