4 Non Blondes - Dear Mr. President

I'm looking outside of my window

The view that I see is a child and mama

And the child is begging for money

Tell me why, tell me why

The woman is blind

Is she so broke the kid's dealing crime

It's such a beautiful city

But the world is burning it down

It's such a beautiful city

But the world is burning it down

I go to my room to turn on the TV

I sit myself down and I start laughing hard

'Cause this man he's asking for money

He says if you send me lots of cash

I'll send you stuff to make you rich fast

It's such a wonderful country

But the man he's burning it down

It's such a wonderful country

But the man he's burning it down

And it's burning down

And it's called the US of A

One day I'm going to have lots of money

But I'll have to give up for this rich society

Oh please Mr. President will you lend me a future

'Cause you'll just get it back

From the little blind woman with the kid on the corner

And the people all over, doin' crack

It's such a wonderful country

But the man he's burning it down

Sing it

And it's burning down

And it's called the US of A

I'm walking outside on a sunny day

With no one around and I wonder what's wrong

The I hear this loud piercing siren

Oh my God the bomb has just dropped

And everybody climbed right on top

Screaming, what a wonderful country

But the man he's burning it down, he's burning it down

It's such a wonderful country

But the man he's burning it down, he's burning it down

And it's burning down

And it's called the US of A
