When The President Talks To God - Bright Eyes

When the President talks to God

Are the conversations brief or long?

Does he ask to rape our women’s rights

And send poor farm kids off to die?

Does God suggest an oil hike

When the President talks to God?

When the President talks to God

Are the consonants all hard or soft?

Is he resolute all down the line?

Is every issue black or white?

Does what God say ever change his mind

When the President talks to God?

When the President talks to God

Does he fake that drawl or merely nod?

Agree which convicts should be killed?

Where prisons should be built and filled?

Which voter fraud must be concealed

When the President talks to God?

When the President talks to God

I wonder which one plays the better cop

«We should find some jobs.

the ghetto’s broke!»

«No, they’re lazy, George, I say we don’t

Just give 'em more liquor stores and dirty coke.»

That’s what God recommends

When the President talks to God

Do they drink near beer and go play golf

While they pick which countries to invade

Which Muslim souls still can be saved?

I guess god just calls a spade a spade

When the President talks to God

When the President talks to God

Does he ever think that maybe he’s not?

That that voice is just inside his head

When he kneels next to the Presidential bed

Does he ever smell his own bullshit

When the President talks to God?

I doubt it

I doubt it
