EAT YOUR HEART OUT, JOHN MELLENCAMP
As I sat on the balcony over the tracks
my mind hopped a train to nowhere.
Maybe I should write a hit song about the U.S. of A.
Become a sensation overnight.
(Eat your. Heart out.)
…Get a load of my lyrics.
…So patriotic.
…John Cougar Mellencamp.
As my mind passes by amber waves of grain,
I’ll harvest them for a profit for me.
‘Cause Bon Jovi did it,
and Springsteen did it.
Now I’m gonna do it.
Fuck you, Dixie Chicks!
This is my country;
I was born in the USA;
In the heartland’s where I stand.
This ain’t a rag, it’s a flag.
From the heartland to the brainland,
united we stand in this great land,
indivisible under God.

BLOWN AWAY
I got this feeling lurching down below.
The pain in my side won’t leave me alone.
And I feel like my insides might explode.
I b-line for the station down the road.
Traffic moves too slow, so slow.
If I don’t move now I might explode.
Away.
I’m blown away, boys.
I b-line for the station down the road.
Still stuck too slow, so slow.
Gotta get there now or I might explode.
She got that feeling lurching down below.
The pain in her side won’t leave her alone.
She b-lines for the station down the road.
And so we meet. Right there down that road.
We belong there, together.
It’s so nice to see you there.
For all that we’ve been through
after nights at the King Kone,
I’d rather be with you ‘cause I remember days alone.

STUMPIN’
How would you all like to be my constituents?
All you have be is a good bunch of patriots.
And vote for me if you’re for or against the things I’m for.
Then we’ll stick sticker ribbons on the back of our cars,
and we’ll wear rubber bracelets around our arms.
And we’ll change this whole gosh darn world together.
Clearly you can hear that I am speaking clear.
Only the ignorant would try and smear
my campaign of this and that and this and that.
If you do not trust me,
you’re with the enemy.
Don’t stand in my way just trust, but verify.
Be rest assured there’s no reason to fear me.
To you I’m nothing more than a harmless kitty.
It’s them and that and them that you need to fear.
I’m only tough on all that ails you.
Don’t worry I am not just another failure.
I’m a big dreamer with a plan so big and dreamy and big.
But did you hear about my opponent?
The lowly scum with no moral component.
The corrupt son-of-a-bitch that did that bad thing back then?
Everything you need to know is on my Website
just go to my dot net for the straightest news you can get.
I’ve got a family.
I love baby trees.
Do you love them, too?
What issues are you for?
Just tell me more, and I will support them.
Just because I threw my opponent under the bus
doesn’t mean that you can’t trust me.
I would never screw you or anyone else
just to get ahead politically.
If you want to know more about me,
just check my record (if you can find it).
Don’t trust them.
Only trust me.
‘Cause I’ve got more hair grease.
Who’s got the money?
Where’s the money?
Let me at the money.
So I can give you more money.
(Vote for me)

HOSE DOWN
All of our neighbors want us gone
‘cause we don’t care enough about our lawn.
Now we won’t win village of the year.
Oh too bad for us.
When we ride ‘round on our bikes,
everybody seems to wanna fight us.
Guess we’re not cut out for this town.
More and more we’re just like them.
I’ve become such a crotchety old man.
We’re way too young to be annoyed by kids.
Let the rain fall all around us.
Rinse off all our filthy sidewalks.
Wash the hate and rage right off us.
So that we can get along and we need a hose down.
Let the rain be our hose down.

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy is what I need now.
I hate you do not leave me.
Don’t leave me alone and empty.
Follow me to the ends of the earth,
and I just might consider you my friend.
Waver but a fraction of a second,
and you will meet your end.
How I love you so, baby,
don’t you ever let me go.

OPEN LETTER (Ditty)
I gave you my two cents.
Then you told me it makes no sense.
And now, you, with your big ideas.
You can do this on your own.
(Know-it-all).
You can do it.
On your own.
Don’t you fuck it up.
I know.
Do this on your own.
On your own.
Your own.
You.
Do it.

On an existential journey sailin’ ‘round the world.
Settle down in San Lorenzo with a beautiful girl.
No way. Run away.
I’m gonna be the president of my own paradise.
I’ll build a utopia.
So “nice, very nice.”
(Freedom)
…for the Papa.
…from his cancer.
…for Monzano.
No he won’t answer.
…for the people.
…from the castle.
…on the mountain.
No more hassles.

2032
If you feel like you’ve got no money
(2032 can’t come soon enough).
If you feel like the whole world’s gone funny.
There shall be dancing in the streets evermore!
‘Cause that is the first year that my cousin Jamie finally is eligible to be your president.
I am confident that he could do a better job than any of the other candidates.
If you feel like the man can’t keep us safe.
And if you feel like the government are ingrates.
