about

studio version on "Manifesto"

lyrics

President
Some feller asked me about the government
And did I know where all that money went
And then he asked me to be the president
But then I’d have to tell them where all the money was spent

On bombs galore and the threat of a nuclear war
On tools of hate, designed to wipe out the human race

Well then he asked me about the deficit
And what’s the overall net effect
So then I thought about being the president
So I could control where all the money went

On food galore, let’s put an end to threats of nuclear war
On peace and love, let’s worship prophets that are up above

Let’s worship profits that are up above
Let’s worship prophets that are up above (let’s go!)

It’s so easy to build utopia
Spaced between my own two ears
And not to inflict it on anyone
Or play on other people’s fear

About bombs galore, let’s put an end to threats of nuclear war
Say peace and love; let’s worship prophets that are up above

Let’s worship profits that are up above- Let’s worship prophets that are up above
Say peace and love, say peace and love,
Say peace, peace, peace and love, love, love- I said peace
