The Lyrics

During Black History Month, many in the "reality challenged " community dredge up visions of welfare queens cruising around in Cadillacs. this next parody addresses the welfare kings( no, not Martin Luther Jr.) being chauffered around on Cessnas under the radar and on our dime.
2 Checks for every guy!
Well we got the TARP program
And we know who its for now, Sub-Sidy here we come
We can't call it welfare
Cause it ain't for the poor now, Sub-Sidy here we come
So we line our pockets with taxpayer cash
And run off to the bank while the markets crash

Well we're goin' to Sub-Sidy gonna have some fun
We're goin' to Sub-Sidy cause it's 2 for 1
Well we're goin' to Sub-Sidy gonna have some fun
Yes we're goin' to Sub-Sidy cause its 2 for 1
2 checks for every guy!

We're gettin' 2 paychecks
And we call one a bonus, Sub-Sidy here we come
we take as much as we want
Because the gov'ment don't own us, Sub-Sidy here we come
We stuff the money in our coffers and just relax
Then move it to a Swiss account and pay no tax!

Well we're goin' to Sub-Sidy gonna have some fun
We're goin' to Sub-Sidy cause it's 2 for 1
Well we're goin' to Sub-Sidy gonna have some fun
Yes we're goin' to Sub-Sidy cause it's 2 for 1
2 checks for every guy!

Well the party keeps rockin'
Year after year now, Sub-Sidy here we come
We'll be sippin' our wine
And we'll be swillin' our beer now, Sub-Sidy here we come
Then we ruin the economy like we did before
And go back to the taxpayers and get some more!

Well we're goin' to Sub-Sidy gonna have some fun
We're goin' to Sub-Sidy cause it's 2 for 1
Well we're goin' to Sub-Sidy gonna have some fun
Yes we're goin' to Sub-Sidy cause it's 2 for1
2 checks for every guy!

Oh so true! Maybe some day, all the working stiffs ought to show up at the welfare office and demand a car and an apartment and some food vouchers. Let the office jockeys tell us why we can't have what we are paying for.

Squire - Good job. I am reminded of Reagan's famous quotation..."If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it." ;D
