Letters To The President Lyrics

Letters To The President lyrics

When we were younger

We used to sit on my porch

And talk smack about girls and professional sports

There’s a lot of things I wanted to say

But never got a chance to find a way



Take a good look at all of our high schools

This is the first reason that I wanna write you

And when we thought when society is messed up

Gotta save money cause they’ll take it out on us



Do they even know

Do they even know

If I was brave I’d write a letter to the president

And have him pass it to the leaders of our parliament

But for now I won’t say nothing

From all the kids who would stand in my residence

Who see this letter as a statement of our innocence

But for now I won’t say nothing



Now that we’re older 

A brand new story unfolds

About God and the laws that we’ve always been told

There’s a lot of things I wanted to say

But never got a chance to find a way



Same sex marriage in a state where they don’t care

Murder is wrong but the jail time’s not fair

Not to mention date rape, felony, and car theft

Break it down and tell me what we got left



Do they even know

Do they even know

If I was brave I’d write a letter to the president

And have him pass it to the leaders of our parliament

But for now I won’t say nothing

From all the kids who would stand in my residence

Who see this letter as a statement of our innocence

As for now I’ll start with something



Take a good look at Tommy

He’s a track star

A role model has a chance to go real far

Then the school made a budget cut

Cut out the track team

Now instead Tommy is a crack head

Same sex marriage in a state were they don’t care

Murder is wrong but the jail time’s not fair

Not to mention date rape, felony, and car theft

Break it down and tell me what we got left



If I was brave I’d write a letter to the president

And have him pass it to the leaders of our parliament

But for now I won’t say nothing

From all the kids who would stand in my residence

Who see this letter as a statement of our innocence

As for now I’ll start with something

As for now I’ll start with something
