Lyrics
the woods are up in smoke
the Gov’nor says nope
you can’t mention that climate stuff
he says he’s not a scientist
but he clearly knows enough
to know the scientists are wrong
the scientists are wrong
and you know you can believe him
while we sing this little song
so make me a pallet on your floor
hand me down my walkin’ shoes
throw my troubles out the door
i got them deep bullshit blues
the Gov’nor says those billions
the polluters were to pay
we won’t need that for the government
we’ll take it another way
just give it directly to my party
‘cause we got a party goin’ on
and you notice he’s not kiddin’
when we sing this little song
the Gov’nor must have been no fool
he must have learned the ropes
to profitize the public schools
and as for the hopes
of those who want to educate
without jumping through a million hoops
remember the prisons need inmates
for his investment groups
so make me a pallet on your floor
hand me down my walkin’ shoes
throw my troubles out the door
i got them deep bullshit blues
