The Lyrics

Obama said the " private sector " is doing just fine. There are those of us that actually live on this planet that know better. Here is a more accurate dose of reality.



I get up every mornin', hear the trash talk formin'
Fake the 8:15 into the city
There's no trickle from above, and people pushin', people muggin'
In a world, that tries to look pretty
And if my brain's on time, I can look for work online
I lost my paying job, I get no pay
Now forever unemployed, look at me, I'm null and void
I hate to work at nothin' all day
Work out

And he said
Private sector business, it's ok
Private sector business, hip hooray
We see private sector business, a good sign
Economic Stim-lus, is workin' out just fine

It's the eatin' I'm missin', that can freeze up nutrition
If I could make sounds that are mellow
Shop at second-hand bazaars', glances are cool so far
Then I hit it with a lite lunch of Jello
People see I have no fun, and my buying's on the run
Tell them that I might run away
But the tax I can't avoid, as with all hem-mor-oids
I hate to work at nothin' all day

And he said
Private sector business, it's okay
Private sector business, hip hooray
We see private sector business, a good sign
Economic Stim-lus, is workin' out just fine

Take good care, of the business, when I'm away, everyday

I get up every mornin', hear the trash talk formin'
Fake the 8:15 into the city
There's no trickle from above, people pushin', people muggin'
In a world, that tries to look pretty
And if my brain's on time, I can look for work online
I lost my paying job, I get no pay
Now forever unemployed, look at me I'm null and void
I hate to work at nothin' all day

And he said
Private sector business, it's okay
Private sector business, hip hooray
We see private sector business, a good sign
Economic Stim-lus, is workin' out just fine

Private sector business, whoo
Private sector business
Private sector business
Economic Stim-lus

Private sector business, it's okay
Private sector business, hip hooray
We see private sector business, a good sign
Economic Stim-lus, is workin' out just fine

The Privat Sector is pushing billions and billions into those Super PACs, seems just fine to me! ;-)

On September 15, 2008, while the United States economic was on the brink of collapse, Senator John McCain said “the fundamentals of our economy are strong.”  Senator McCain was slammed by Obama for being out of touch on how to get the American economy moving in a positive direction again. If Obama says the private sector is “doing fine” again, it should be in a Mitt Romney television ad slamming Obama for being out of touch on how to get the American economy moving in a positive direction.

Great minds think alike- 555!!! I live in Cali and NO ONE I know is better off than 4 years ago; in fact, a lot have lost their jobs with the State and in the private sector. Everything seems stagnant. People with Masters degrees can't get a job at McDonald's!!! No one is buying much and little to no new construction. Most of our parks are in danger too of being closed. How in the world does Obama claim a recovery when no one is advancing? The numbers don't lie with unemployment and foreclosures are still going on. Gas is still high, and everyone's afraid. Real growth would be 5-10% and ANY day the DOW could plummet just like in 2008 over Europe, Asian markets, etc...
