Ever get an ear worm? When a piece of Music or a song just won't leave you in peace?
A few days I posted a Randy Newman youtube in a comments section of a diary about corporate jet tax loopholes, and now the damn thing won't go away. Particularly since the lyrics are so damn timely, despite having been written 40 years ago. So why should I be the only one to suffer? Let me share my worm with you.
Lyrics below the squiggle
We've taken all you've given
But it's gettin' hard to make a livin'
Mr. President have pity on the working man
We're not asking you to love us
You may place yourself high above us
Mr. President have pity on the working man
I know it may sound funny
But people ev'ry where are runnin' out of money
We just can't make it by ourself
It is cold and the wind is blowing
We need something to keep us gong
Mr. President have pity on the working man
Maybe you've cheated
Maybe you've lied
Maybe you have lost your mind
Maybe you're only thinking 'bout yourself
Too late to run. Too late to cry now
The time has come for us to say good-bye now
Mr. President have pity on the working man
Mr. President have pity on the working man
