CEPHUS LIKES TO WRITE ENTERTAINING SONGS. HE MIGHT GO A LITTLE FAR WITH HIS SUBJECT MATTER SOMETIMES BUT BELIEVE IT OR NOT HE TRIES TO SHOW SOME RESTRAINT. CEPHUS ALSO LIKES TO WRITE SONGS ABOUT RIGHT AND WRONG. HE TRIES TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND BELIEVES WE HAVE A COMPASS INSIDE US TO GUIDE US TO DO THE RIGHT THING. IF WE ONLY LISTEN TO THE VOICE OF OUR CONSCIENCE IT NUDGES US TOWARD THE RIGHT DECISION. WE MUST CAREFULLY WEIGH THE REPERCUSSIONS OF OUR CHOICES. GOD MADE IT PRETTY EASY FOR US IF WE LISTEN CLOSELY. YOU'LL BE RIGHT SOMETIMES AND WRONG SOMETIMES BUT YOU'LL GET MOST OF THEM RIGHT. WHAT SAY YOU?

Story behind the song
Many Americans believe that the Iraq war started under false pretenses. It seems we should be fighting Al-Qaeda at every turn not concentrating our forces on the relatively fang-less country of Iraq despite Iraq having the second largest oil reserves in the world.
Lyrics
TRUTH AIN'T COMING FROM THE WHITE HOUSE With daddy's friends at Yale, Georgie never had to cram His family kept him out of that old war in Vietnam Official records showed him AWOL from his base in Alabam'... G.W. howed you go so wrong?? TRUTH AIN'T COMING FROM THE WHITE HOUSE TRUTH AIN'T COMING FROM THE WHITE HOUSE IT'S CLEAR WE PUT HIM IN THE WRONG HOUSE LET THE TROOPS COME MARCHING HOME His loyalty to oil exceeds his love for Texas soil When drillers hit a gusher it's the sweetest of his spoils He profits when we pay too much for gasoline and oil.... While we're paying through the schnozz!! CHORUS He stayed on his vacation when Katrina came to town He was playing guitar as New Orleans slowly drowned Where was his helping hand when the little folks were down... Oh the list goes on and on! CHORUS His compassion leaves an awful lot to be desired We knew his heart pumped oil by the cabinet he hired He loves that black crude more than those young soldiers who've expired... Please don't swap our sons for oil! CHORUS Recitation: Truth ain't coming from the White House Clinton lied but nobody died in the Clinton White House But ole G.W. is socking it to everybody!! And truth is going down the drain-- Only lies remain... "EVERYBODY.....SING ALONG...." TRUTH AIN'T COMING FROM THE WHITE HOUSE TRUTH AIN'T COMING FROM THE WHITE HOUSE HANG HIS MUG SHOT IN THE OUTHOUSE-- THAT'S WHERE HIS TRUTH BELONGS... LET THE TROOPS COME MARCHING HOME

Since when has the truth EVER come from the White House? It's always the rumors and news reports that have more truth, than what comes from our own Gov't. Fine job, and the events that are mentioned in this song, I do remember...it's a shame.
