Lyrics
I DON'T WANNA BE THE PRESIDENT
AIR FORCE ONE WELL IT MAY BE FUN
BUT I DON'T WANNA BE THE PRESIDENT
SECRET SERVICE GETS ME NERVOUS
AND I DON'T WANNA BE THE PRESIDENT
YOU'RE TAKING TOO MANY MEETINGS WITH TOO MANY GUYS
THERE'S TOO MANY EVER PRESENT PRYING EYES
SO WHEN I GROW UP I'M GONNA GET ME A JOB
I DON'T WANNA BE THE PRESIDENT
MOVIE STARS IN THOSE LONG BLACK CARS
BUT I DON'T WANNA BE THE PRESIDENT
24 HOUR SUPER POWER
AND I DON'T WANNA BE THE PRESIDENT
YOU'RE PUSHING TOO MANY BUTTONS
PULLING TOO MANY STRINGS [
PLEDGING YOUR ALLEGIANCE TO ALL THE WRONG THINGS
NOW WHEN I GROW UP I'M GONNA GET ME A JOB
I DON'T WANNA BE THE PRESIDENT
I'LL BE A FIRE MAN,..DEPUTY CHIEF
DOCTOR, LAWYER, NEWS REPORTER, RADICAL PRIEST
I'LL DRIVE A TAXI CAB, A DIESEL RIGG ay
I'M JUST AN AVERAGE JOE, I'M NO MR. BIG
YOU'RE DOING TOO MANY FAVORS FOR TOO MANY GUYS
STILL EVERYBODY HATES YOU AND YOU DON'T KNOW WHY
I'M GONNA GET ME JOB
I DON'T WANNA BE THE PRESIDENT
AH I DON'T WANNA BE THE PRESIDENT
OH NO I DON'T WANNA BE THE PRESIDENT
