Dear Mr. President
Come take a walk with me
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly

What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep
What do you feel when you look in the mirror
Are you proud

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why

Dear Mr. President
Were you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
Are you a lonely boy
How can you say
No child is left behind
We're not dumb and we're not blind
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye

Let me tell you bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Oh

How do you sleep at night
How do you walk with your head held high
Dear Mr. President
You'd never take a walk with me
Would you

This post is so true. But it should be posted under " political ". I wish I had composed this. Could anyone honestly dispute the content ? I don`t think so.

It is an actual song by Pink. And it is so true.

I have this song and absolutely LOVE it! I feel she hit the nail right on the head when she did this. I've always liked Pink - a woman who has guts to say it like it is.

Hats off to pink for having the guts to tell it like it is and practise her right to free speech, not many people would stand up to the "man" like that, i just wonder if bush has heard this song.

I give her alot of credit cause she made some bold statements in that song and from listening to her interviews she stands by her statements. I have always liked her and respect her cause she stays out of the "spotlight" she loves making music and doesn't feel the need to act out to get attention.

Another great Pink song came to mind. It best describes fellow blogger Pablo_Kielbasa. The title speaks for itself. "U and Ur Hand"

It is not what happens to you that counts. It is how you react to what happens to you, especially when you have unexpected problems of any kind. Every day may not be good, but there's something good in every day.
