Draining the Swamp

from IT CAN'T HAPPEN HERE by Dan Sullivan

/

lyrics

They’re draining the swamp
They’re draining the swamp
They’re sweeping the laws off the shelves
They’re making deals for what they can’t steal
The poor can fend for themselves

While Congressmen dine at the Dirksen Cafe
And the President feasts on Foie Gras
They’re taking federal funding away
From programs that feed Ma and Pa

They’re draining the swamp
They’re draining the swamp
They’re sweeping the laws off the shelves
They’re making deals for what they can’t steal
The poor can fend for themselves

They’re cutting down funds to the EPA
Now it’s everyman for himself
Don’t blame them when the air turns grey
Go bitch at somebody else

They’re draining the swamp
They’re draining the swamp
They’re sweeping the laws off the shelf
They’re making deals for what they can’t steal
The earth can fend for itself

They’re stripping healthcare from millions
To give tax cuts to all of their pals
And if cutting the rolls just might kill some
All they can say is “Oh Well”

Some people like gardening, working on cars or woodworking. Others enjoy knitting, collecting stamps or coins. That kind of thing. I like writing songs.
