When I'm President - Ian Hunter

Mother I, m a stranger in a strange land

I feel like an alien

Like I’m on the outside looking in

I don’t seem to fit in

Maybe I’m aladdin with a rusty lamp

A genie never stood a chance

To make all my wishes come true

But here’s what I want to do

I’m gonna lean on the 1%

When I’m president

I want a 20th amendment

When I’m president

They’re like thieves on a holy host

Digging up the mother lode

Like pirates on the open sea

Like highway robbery

Still whining about your bonus

Man up, you’re ridiculous

Hell you can’t take it with ya

So, give a little extra

I’m gonna lean on the 1%

When i’m president

No more bargains, in the basement

When I’m president

Washington, Jefferson

Watch out baby cause here I come

Abraham, Theodore

You know you’ll see my ugly mug

Up on mount Rushmore, yeah

You go in with the right intent

When you become president

You hold those truths to be self-evident

When you become president

Cause somethin' happens to you up on the hill

It’s business as usual

How do you want to buck the system?

Welcome to the pit and the pendulum

I’m gonna lean on the 1%

When I’m president

No more 20th amendment

When I’m president

No more bargains in the basement

When I’m president

Everything’s gonna be different

When I’m president

Veto this yeah

Veto that yeah

When I’m president

I’ll stick it to the first class

Cross my heart

Hope to die

When I’m president

Pigs are gonna fly

Look at 'em
