Story Behind the Song
Any Little Boy...... Wrote this for the election in '96. It should be
good for every four years and has lots of potential for add on verses.
Feel free to add your own.
Lyrics
Any Little Boy
Well, I wonder what it's like to be the president,
all the attention that it brings
the sex and the money and the secrets
and the pardon in the wings
to be the most important person
on this planet, Earth
and, all the third world wants his head
what could that job be worth?
(chorus)
"Cause, any little boy can be the president
if he was born in the U.S.A.
in a great big city, in a one horse town
or, any truckstop along the way
you gotta be focused and you gotta stay clear
with a faith that will not fail
yes, any little boy can be the president
as long as he don't inhale
I dreampt I was running for president
it was 1963
I was 10 years old, my fate untold
I was searching for the white house key
I jumped right to the promises
and I took the long way back
went cruisin' with the top down
I got this big blonde in the sack
( chorus)
We put a lot of pressure on the president
and he's gotta take the pressure home
we revel in the scandal, more than he can handle
and we fine it with a fine tooth comb
we tell him that we need him,
then, we cut him and we bleed him
we figure we can take the loss
we give hime plenty of rope and when he can't cope,
a little presidental floss
(chorus)
Well, we've had all kinds of presidents,
as any free country should
we idolize the bad ones
and assassinate the good
we had the one who made the movie with the chimpanzee,
but, his dream was to direct
and now we've got "Slick Willie"
who's politically erect
(chorus)
And, if any little boy can be the president,
then, any little girl can, too
everybody knows she's more mature
and she works for less money, too
she can talk to the Russians and the Arabs and the Congress
a whole lot better than me
yeah, any little girl can be the president
you just wait and see
on capitol hillery
she don't need no willy
you just wait and see
