The Saddest Song Lyrics by Michael Friedman

Bloody Bloody Andrew Jackson

2010

[JACKSON]
When it stops being fun, and your patience is done
And you see being President’s hard
With this country before you that cannot be governed
You find yourself powerless, bloody and scarred
And what is it for? The love of a people!
And who is it for? This nation we made!
That guy who did everything his way, where has he gone?
So tonight I’ll sing the saddest songs
To everyone that I’ve done wrong
And if you don’t know how to sing along
I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry but the band plays on
Jeremiah looked down on the people of Judah
And told them their future was bloody and cursed
When I think of the conflict and the change that awaits us
It’s gonna be hard, but this country comes first
[BAND]
Revolutions will come to you, swift if you let them
The nation united cannot be undone
Adams, Jefferson, Washington, Monroe and Madison
Started a war, but it’s hardly begun
[JACKSON]
So we’ll ruin the bank, and we’ll cripple the courts
And we’ll take on the world for America’s sake
And we’ll take all the land, and we’ll take back the country
And we’ll take, and we’ll take, and we’ll take and we’ll take
And this country I’m making cannot be divided!
The will of the people won’t stand in my way!
How can I tell you how deeply I’ll make them all bleed?
And so I’ll sing the saddest songs
Of enemies who did me wrong
And the war will go on and on and on
And on and on and on as long as we need!
