Johnny can't read but he can count to free It's all a state of mine Print and spend it's all Greek to me Leave the future behind A program for this and a program for that If you survive the womb It will be on our children's backs Long after they reach the tomb What's another trillion in debt Strangled in the safety net Spending your way to prosperity Puts more on the government dole Take my dough for cowboy poetry But you'll never take my soul Oh give me a home where the gov don't roam And bureaucrats don't play Where never is heard a confiscatory word And I choose what to do with my pay We've all put in what we'll never get back (Never get back) Why not pass the Happiness Act (Happiness Act) IOU We're insolvent from Orwell's utopia IOU Whine and scream until your wants are you needs Just hold your hand in line The joke's on you cos nothing comes free It's all on your children's dime They'll say you're entitled to greener pastures And make the exception the rule Those sacred cows are eating your future Don't feed your kids that bull Restore the values of grandmoms and dads (Grandmoms and grandads) Self-reliance ain't a fad (Self-reliance) IOU We're insolvent from Orwell's utopia IOU Down from the hill here comes another spending bill Must subject my kids to that environmental swill Can't withhold my union dues, my kid's school I cannot choose Can't decide on what they eat, they're being watched by Camera 3 No choice in what I drive, demonized if business thrives Profit's a four-letter word they raised the ceiling have you heard Gotta hide myself to pray it's offensive they say They're growing the ranks of the poor and downtrodden every day Johnny can't read but he can count to free It's all a state of mine Print and spend it's all Greek to me Leave the future behind A program for this and a program for that If you survive the womb It will be on our children's backs Long after they reach the tomb What's another trillion in debt (Great Society) Strangled in the safety net (War on Poverty) IOU We're insolvent from Orwell's utopia IOU Let the rich employ the poor 'Til there are no poor no more Let the rich employ the poor 'Til there are no poor no more I'd love to change the world And I know just what to do
