You Get What You Get Lyrics

Let's run for public office

Smile and impress the caucuses

Dress for success

Victory will assure us

Of public health insurance, it's true

Free for me, not for you

Well you get what you get and you don't get upset

That's the lesson they've fed us from birth

While they take and they take

And we're scraping our plates for the crumbs that remain

In the dirt

Let's hit the rich with taxes

Then arm ourselves with axes, start with the yachts

Sell them for spare parts

Let's appoint union members

To the Board of Directors, it's fair

Everyone gets a share

Well you get what you get and you don't get upset

That's the lesson they've fed us from birth

While they take and they take

And we're scraping our plates for the crumbs that remain

In the dirt

Well you get what you get and you don't get upset

That's the lesson they've fed us from birth

While they take and they take

And we're scraping our plates for the crumbs that remain

In the dirt

Let's dismantle Big Pharma

Write scrips for marijuana instead

We'd have fewer dead

Stop funding private prisons

Use it for rehabilitation

Like a developed nation

Well you get what you get and you don't get upset

That's the lesson they've fed us from birth

While they take and they take

And we're scraping our plates for the crumbs that remain

In the dirt
