If My Friends Ran the Government Lyrics by Blimp Rock

Blimp Rock

2013

If my friends ran the government
They'd reward good bellies and laughing fits
Tax adults who are mean and know better
Kindly suggest they write apology letters
If my friends did the governing
They'd teach all the kids international financing
Help economics make sense to us all
Then quietly destroy it and somehow move on
And when the fat cats come a stumblin' through
My friends will hear them out and make sure they're wrong
'Cause they're rewarding good behavior
Giving baked goods to strangers
Sharing beers
Having times
If my friends ran the government (x3)
I might just call their country mine
If my friends ran the House of Commons you could say goodbye to all your car problems
Split the St. Lawrence down the 401, drift at your own pace to your destination
If my friends ran the cabinet they'd institute the proper kind of parliament
Bootsy Collins and that fuzzy bass, you know they'd funk away excessive waste
And when the fat cats come a stumblin' through
My friends will hear them out and make sure they're wrong
'Cause they're rewarding good behavior
Giving baked goods to strangers
Sharing beers
Having times
If my friends ran the government (x3)
I might just call their country mine
If my friends ran the government, they'd forget the ballots and vote with the pie
Let in all with open hearts, and they'd knit newcomers cozy scarves
If my friends ran the government, they'd teach all the babies conflict resolution
And then my friends government will finally fall
