Pink has a new song out called Dr. Mr. President.....here are the words... Read it and then tell us what you think.......

PINK LYRICS

"Dear Mr. President"
(feat. Indigo Girls)

Dear Mr. President,
Come take a walk with me.
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me.
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly.

What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street?
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep?
What do you feel when you look in the mirror?
Are you proud?

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why?

Dear Mr. President,
Were you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
How can you say
No child is left behind?
We're not dumb and we're not blind.
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell.

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine.

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye?

Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Oh

How do you sleep at night?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Dear Mr. President,
You'd never take a walk with me.
Would you?

Personally i can't listen to this song. One thing i don't think the President is this monster she is trying to portray. I am a Republican however i don't agree with everything that has gone on in his Presidency but i don't think he is paving the road to hell. I do think he feels badly when soldiers die, I commend him for going against abortion.....she says he is taking away his daughters rights? Or that he would hate his child if they were gay???? That is so not true I'm sure. I'm against homosexual marriage but that doesn't mean i would hate my child if they were gay. He's not to blame for all the homelessness in the US.
Then she goes on to say Let me tell you let me tell you......and i gotta say she has a pretty cushy life herself.

I don't like when celebrities try to shove their political views at us.

I also like the new song by Matchbox 20.....however the Democratic advertisement at the end bugs me too. Again I DON'T CARE TO SEE IT IN A MUSIC VIDEO!!!!

I have had this cd for a while and I love the song. It says it all. But also it is sad that the world has come to this. Can you imagine someone saying this to a President when we were young? Of course I feel like he really deserves the things that are said here, I just think it says what our nation has become also.

I dont think hes 100% responsible for all the worlds problems. however he isnt doing a heck of alot to help. I dont think shes pushing her views anymore than any other celebrity- If you dont like it dont watch(JMHO). Shes voicing her opinion, shes not saying hate bush, hate all he stands for. Im not a very political person. However I really dislike bush.
As for the homosexual marriage thing- he IS taking his daughters rights away by banning gay marriage-which means he doesnt "allow" it.
If he was sorry about the things that he has done in Iraq- maybe he would have made some better decisions.
And just because she has a nice life doesnt mean that she isnt doing things to help out- to give back.
what matchbox 20 song? im not very familiar with them.

Oh i won't. She might not be saying it right out but she is saying hate Bush and hate ALL he stands for....how can you read that and say otherwise. She is pointing the finger at him for all the negative in the U.S.

Loved the song since the first time I heard it on tv!

I dont think she's saying hate Bush at all. Its a song written to him by her and for her. Voicing what she would like to say to him, not what she thinks the world should say.

I've gotta say that i do like Pink. I too like this album. I'm not bashing Pinks talent. In fact i actually like her voice and the melody of this particular song. I just think she is harsh and is painting Bush as just a monster with no feelings at all for his country. I do not think that is the case with him. Is he the brightest president that we've ever had....no....but he's not some sort of heartless beast.
That's all i'm saying.
