Song lyrics
Na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na

Dear Mr. President
Come take a walk with me (come take a walk with me)
Let's pretend we're just two people and
You're not better than me
I'd like to ask you some questions if we can speak honestly

What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street
Who do you pray for at night before you go to sleep
What do you feel when you look in the mirror
Are you proud

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye
And tell me why

Na, na, na
Na, na, na, na, na
Dear Mr. President
Were you a lonely boy (were you a lonely boy)
Were you a lonely boy (were you a lonely boy)
How can you say
No child is left behind
We're not dumb and we're not blind (we're not blind)
They're all sitting in your cells
While you pave the road to hell

What kind of father would take his own daughter's rights away
And what kind of father might hate his own daughter if she were gay
I can only imagine what the first lady has to say
You've come a long way from whiskey and cocaine

How do you sleep while the rest of us cry
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye
How do you walk with your head held high
Can you even look me in the eye

Let me tell you bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
Oh

How do you sleep at night
How do you walk with your head held high
Dear Mr. President
You'd never take a walk with me
Would you

ARgh...am I the only one that thinks this is such a nice relaxing song, even without the extremely honest (and correct) lyrics.

P!nk's become one of the best female singers of today mesa tinks.

This song is great and Pink has a great voice. The only thing in the song that's really stupid is "you've come a long way..from whiskey and cocaine..".

First off, I do think that Pink it very talented. However, I almost laughed at this song.
"Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work"

Sure, those things are hard, yes. But Pink never had to deal with any of that. And, she's a celeb. I mean, I see pictures of her on her segway, and she sings about people building beds out of boxes. "You don't know nothing about hard work". C'mon, he's President! I'm sure that's not such an easy job.
It's pretty much a lame/un true song.

Actually, before Pink became a celebrity, she had a hard time to, so don't say she don't know anything 'bout it. In those lyrics I believe she tried to say, that the governement should think more about real needs of people, and not about another war. How could a president care more about money than his own citizens?

Maybe lyrics are simple and a bit naive, but there's a huge power in Pink's voice, and that's why I like this song.
