lyrics

Washington

Washington was a speculator – don’t believe the lies.
Kicked the Scots out of Miller’s Run – even after they offered to buy.
Absentee landlord; he broke the laws that we’re in his way
He rooked his own soldier’s out of their acre’s pay

He’s the face on the dollar bill; I think that I know why
He snatched the most land by grabbin’ it on the sly
He’s Washington – G. Washington
He’s Washington – G. Washington
He’s the father of our country; he’s the man of the hour,
and there’s nothin’ he wouldn’t do to gain more power

He developed water routes – but it was for personal gain
He thought through tolls turn a profit - Never mind the settler’s grain
“Fuck ‘em all,” he said - ‘til he realized the key
If all united, then he’d make out on the Western Territory

He’s the face on the dollar bill; I think that I know why
‘cuz he fooled us into thinkin’ that he wouldn’t tell a lie
He’s Washington – G. Washington
He’s Washington – G. Washington
He’s the father of our country; he’s the man of the hour,
and there’s nothin’ he wouldn’t do to gain more power
