이명박 대통령 뿐 아니라 전세계 권력자들에게 꼭 들려주고 싶은 노래.
처음 이 노래 들었을 때 pink의 매력적인 목소리와 가사말이 너무 좋아서 한참을 들었던 기억이 난다.
Dear Mr. President, come take a walk with me
Let's pretend, we're just two people and
You're not better than me
I'd like to ask you some questions, if we can speak honestly
What do you feel when you see all the bomeless on the street?
What do you pray for at night before you go to sleep?
What do you feel when you look in the mirror?
Are you proud?
Chorus:
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 you head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye, and tell me why?
Dear Mr. President
Were you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
How can you say, "no child ist left behind"
We're not dumb and we're not blind
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell
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!
Chorus
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you 'bout hard work! Hard work! Hard work!
You don't know nothing 'bout hard work! Hard work! Hard work!!!!!!!!
How do you sleep at night?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Dear Mr. President, you'd never take a walk with me
...would you?
