Dreaming in a Recession

O save us
For in god we trust
O save us
For our sins to earth are unbound and plenty
O one that has been delivered from the head of the penny
What must we do?
For we know not what future lies in store
T'is not T'is not i say one mans burden
But for all to heft into the light of day
To clarify our sins to Earth, man and God
T'is not one mans burden
And for this thre is penance to pay

O our sonss do not blame us
For we beacame lost along the way
Our tears and fears we hid in will show you the way
O our daughters i pray
Liberal and independant will open the way
T'is not one mans burden
But for all to pay

O our politics must no longer restrain us
So we can be the Americans we once were
Let our dreams not be so bleakand unsure
But nutured by the dreams of our fathers
And the prayers of our mothers
