They say it's not what we owe,
but the looming debt that has to go.
If we just pretend it isn't there,
we can go through life with out a care.
But this problem the big-wigs cannot solve.
So more fears they do evolve.
Our leaders do fight both tooth an nail.
But from this trouble they cannot bail.
I wish that just this once.
They wouldn't treat me like a dunce.
And fix the country up just right.
So I could sleep all through the night.

They are trying to destroy this country and doing a pretty damn good job of it in my opinion.
