A song about people selling out sung by a man who aspires to do the same. Government to the Rich music, vocals, and lyrics by Kevin Michael McDaniel
lyrics
I want to get on the gravy train: be elected Senator.
I want to get on the gravy train: become a Representative.
I want to get on the gravy train: be elected President.
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich.
Government to the rich, government to the rich,
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Government to the rich, government to the rich,
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich.
Now if the rich want to start another war, then I'd say that's okay.
Two or maybe three more wars, then I'd say that's okay.
Profit ever more from war, then I'd say that's okay.
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich.
Government to the rich, government to the rich,
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
I want to get on the gravy train: Live in a mansion, and be set for life.
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich!
Now we've got ourselves, a deficit. Ain't that a cryin' shame?
An even more massive national debt, and the private banks are to blame.
They profit from, collecting interest, on our massive national debt,
and turn our government, into an instrument, of fiscal enslavement!
Now if the rich don't want care for the poor, then I'd say that's okay.
No care for the young, no care for the old, then I'd say that's okay.
No care of sick, no minimum wage, then I'd say that's okay.
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich!
Government to the rich, government to the rich,
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
I want to get on the gravy train: Live in a mansion, and be set for life.
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich!
Even if all domestic spending, were cut to zero today,
we'd have ourselves a deficit, the private banks would find a way,
to keep us making interest payments, on a massive national debt,
and turn our government into an instrument of fiscal enslavement.
Government to the rich, government to the rich,
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Government to the rich, government to the rich,
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich.

Government to the rich, government to the rich,
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich.

I want to get on the gravy train: Live in a mansion, and be set for life.
I want to sell my influence, over government to the rich!

I am the truth seeker. I am the myth maker. I am the authority. I decide how. I make up my mind. I am the architect. I value
truths. I value the most optimistic myths. I use my values. I build within my mind. I fashion my reality. My reality is my house of ideology. I am the high ideologue of my house of ideology. I can change my reality to what. I would like my reality to be....more
