"Obama Budget Plan" lyrics

"Obama Budget Plan"

Well I told my wife we had to get control
Of the finances in our household
We had to sit down and make a budget we could live by

I said we'll list our incomes and all our bills
So get the bills, honey, if you will
She got 'em and stacked 'em on the table three piles high

Now, I work two jobs and the wife cleans homes
Our daughter babysits, our son mows lawns
But that budget wouldn't balance no matter how we tried

So I said, let's do what the government does
It works for them it might work for us
So I forgot my morals and ethics and swallowed my pride

We took out every credit card we could get
And loaded them up with the maximum debt
Borrowed from friends and family, even took out loans overseas

I borrowed at work, took credit at the store
Till folks just wouldn't give us credit any more
And I said, 'Honey, the next step is clear to me'

Now we got money
Obama money
Yeah we're printin' it in the basement just as fast as we can
We're makin' money
Obama money
Yeah we're livin' the Obama budget plan

Well, we didn't use the money to reduce our debt
There was a whole bunch of thing we still wanted to get
Now that we had more money than ever before
So we built a deck and a patio, put in a pool, bought a second home
Took all of our friends on vacation to Costa del Sol

Now we got money
Obama money
Yeah we're printin' it in the basement just as fast as we can
We're makin' money
Obama money
Yeah we're livin' the Obama budget plan

Budget ceiling, credit score
Don't worry 'bout that I'll just print more of that money ...

Now we got money
Obama money
Yeah we're printin' it in the basement just as fast as we can
We're makin' money
Obama money
Yeah we're livin' the Obama budget plan
