Mom Returns Voters To A Simpler Time With Sing-Alongs

"As you know, I am a values-stance candidate" Mom has stated. "My values may not be the values of the Clinton or Bush political families, but they more closely express the values of the average American. Music is a universal language, and anything that gets the American people united as one voice, is good for the country as a whole."

To that end, Mom's Presidential Campaign is posting videos and printing the words to her various campaign songs, to encourage supporters to join her in a good old-fashioned sing-along. "It's hard to sing along if you don't know the words" is a catch phrase for which Mom is well known. "Don't expect any 'Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow' crap from my campaign, though", Mom warns.

This first song, "River of Deceit" by Mad Season, refers to the neverending lies and brainwashing committed by the Bush Administration, against the American people.



My pain is self-chosen
At least so the prophet says
I could either burn
Or cut off my pride and buy some time
A head full of lies is a weight tied to my waist

The river of deceit flows down
The only direction we go is down

My pain is self-chosen
At least, I believe it to be
I could either drown
Or pull off my skin and swim to shore
Now I can grow a beautiful shell for all to see

The river of deceit flows down
The only direction we go is down

My pain is self-chosen
Our pain is self-chosen

The following song, "Long Gone Day" by the same band, represents the freedom we once knew, which now is just a distant memory thanks to the Patriot Act and other Bush atrocities against our civil rights; but thanks to the true American spirit, is never really gone.



So much blood I'm starting to drown
It runs from cold to colder
Time to time the sky's coming down
To help me lose my way

Tears and lies for answers
You and open flame, God knows I'm gone
Girl I just want you to
Come on down

Lord it's a storm and I'm heading to fall
These sins are mine and I've done wrong, oh babe
Come on down, come on down, my babe I know

It's been a long gone day
Who ever said we ever wash away with the rain?

See you all from time to time
Isn't it so strange
How far away we all are now
Am I the only one who remembers that summer?

Oh, I remember
Everyday each time the place was saved
The music that we made
The wind has carried all of that away

Long gone day
Who ever said we wash away with the rain?

So many tears I'm starting to drown
The rains in heaven all come down
Silver spoons affix the crown
The luckless ones are broken

Fears and lies for answers
You and open flames
God knows I'm gone
And I just want you to
Come on down

Lord it's a storm and I'm heading to fall
These sins are mine and I've done wrong
Oh babe, come on down

I fear again, like then, I've lost my way
Shout to God to bring my sunny day
