Lyrics

All right!
 Well I called up the President
 And asked him where the money went
 He told me that it all got spent
 Long before I ever learned to drive
 How's that kid, you satisfied?
 Oh now do us all a favor and go
 Buzz along your modern life
 Well I turned on the evening news
 Another white man sings the blues
 Telling me I'm gonna lose
 Unless we all wake up and choose a side
 C'mon son, where's your pride?
 Well sir, it's hard to catch my breath
 When I been drowning in my modern life
 Yeah
 No you can't fool me
 Your Time Square looks like a graveyard
 I got a billboard for my headstone
 And a car horn for my eulogy
 I don't know but it's been said
 There's bound to be good times ahead
 You might get rich, you might get dead
 Either way, I'm waiting for a sign
 Oh my lord, you know I'm trying
 But it don't feel like easy winning
 When I'm spinning in my modern life
 Yeah
 Well you can't fool me
 Your Time Square looks like a graveyard
 I got a billboard for my headstone
 And a car horn for my eulogy
 Yeah, eulogy
 Well I called up the President
 And asked him where the money went
 He told me that it all was spent
 Long before I ever learned to drive
 How's that kid, you satisfied?
 Oh now do us all a favor and go
 Buzz along your modern life
 Won't you do us all a favor
 And go buzz on your modern life
 Oh yeah
