Dear Mr. President

How did I not know about this song earlier?


To quote Aaron Sorkin's Lewis Rothschild from The American President: "I'm a citizen, this is my President. And in this country it is not only permissible to question our leaders it's our responsibility!"





What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away?
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay?
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine.

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye?
