Hey Mr President- can you tell me just what happened
'Cause you made so many promises and now it seems you were just yappin'
What happened to Guantanamo, what happened to the jobs
What happened to transparency, it's still as thick as fog
Did you really believe it, that you could get us off the ground
Come on you didn't mean it, that you could spread the wealth around
We couldn't read the bills, they had to pass them in a hurry
It must be nice to know that you don't have to worry
'Cause you blame it on Bush, Blame it on Fox
Blame it on twitter and the right wing blogs
Blame it on tax breaks, blame it on earthquakes
Blame it on wall street, what about Khalid Sheik?
Blame it on the rich, blame it on the poor,
Yeah, blame cream puffs on Michael Moore
But it's sounding all the same, what are we supposed to do
When the one you'll never blame, it's you, it's you, it's you, it's you
Hey Mr President, I hate to break it to you
But defending Eric Holder will sink you fast and furious
You can hide behind the nonsense that you protect the middle class
But to blame all on millionaires will bite you in the ass
Did you really believe it, that Solyndra was a gem
Come on you didn't mean it when you blamed the ATMs
You can't believe the Tea Party doesn't see you as the Messiah
You should have though of that when you prayed with Jeremiah
So you blame it on Bush, Blame it on Fox
Blame it on twitter and the right wing blogs
Blame it on tax breaks, blame it on earthquakes
Blame it on wall street, what about Khalid Sheik?
Blame it on the rich, blame it on the poor,
Yeah, blame cream puffs on Michael Moore
But it's sounding all the same, what are we supposed to do
'Cause the one you'll never blame, it's you
You tripled our debt, it's all gimme, gimme, gimme
You listen to the Fed and Turbo Tax Timmy
You may blame it on jet owners, you may blame it on BP
But since I didn't vote for you, you can't blame me
No, you can't blame me.
So you blame it on Bush, Blame it on Fox
Blame it on twitter and the right wing blogs
Blame it on tax breaks, blame it on earthquakes
Blame it on wall street, what about Khalid Sheik?
Blame it on the rich, blame it on the poor,
Yeah, blame cream puffs on Michael Moore
But it's sounding all the same, what are we supposed to do
'Cause the one you'll never blame, it's you, it's you, it's you, it's you
You know, you know that it's you
