hey mr. president
did you get my letter?
I sent it a month ago
but i guess it never even found you
maybe
you haven't been around to reply
hey mr. president
how about the weather
the winter is cold as hell
is there a better way to reach you
have
you got anyone to speak to tonight
I thought i could drop by around nine o'clock
We could have a late meal and go for a walk
I've got nothing
but stupid questions for you now
what'll we do if the tanks won't run
and the bombs won't land
'til they turn into sunlight
gracefully
washing the whole thing in yellow and blue
I heard a rumor that the guns won't fire
and the ships might sink and the
people might smile
better check it out, sir
I swear it could be true
I swear it could be true
hey mr. president
did you get my letter?
a couple of friends wrote too
but i guess they never even found
you
maybe they didn't make it down to your place
hey mr. president
I know your busy
but one day i'll get through
and you could give me just a moment
I
know it's silly
but i've so much to say
I thought you could stop by as soon as your free
I could play you a song
you could read me a speech
I
could tell you about this crazy conspiracy
what'll we do if the tanks won't run
and the bombs won't land
'til they turn into sunlight
gracefully
washing the whole thing in yellow and blue
I heard a rumor that the guns won't fire
and the ships might sink and the
people might smile
better check it out, sir
I swear it could be true
I swear it could be true
