Lyrics
There's no place we'd rather be
Than the good o' USA,
But it seems we've got more problems
Each and everyday.
We need to make some changes
Starting from the Top,
Or else someday we'll lose this fight
and the freedoms that we've got.
So let's start with the
CIA, the FBI and the IRS,
Oh what a mess,
We must confess.
And Whatabout the EPA, DOD and the GAO,
Now we know, where our money goes.
Whatabout the Post Office folks,
the Border Patrol and those Amtrak Trains,
Seems our government, it has growing pains.
It's not our family, friends,
Husband's and wife's at these Agencies,
For it starts at the Top with the Beauocracy.
(instrumental break)
Whatabout, whatabout, whatabout, whatabout the
CIA, the FBI and the IRS.
Oh what a mess,
We must confess.
and Whatabout the EPA, the DOD and the GAO,
Now we know, where our money goes.
And Whatabout the FDA, the HUD and the GAO,
Whatabout the EPA, the DOD and the Border Patrol,
And Whatabout the CIA, the FBI and the IRS,
But it's the IRS, we love to hate the best!
Fade out with voices talking 'bout the IRS
