Has anyone heard this song by Pink?



"Dear Mr. President"

Dear Mr. President,
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?

Dear Mr. President,
Were you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
Are you a lonely boy?
How can you say
No child is left behind?
We're not dumb and 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?http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eDJ3cuXKV4

I'm pretty sure that's the one she sang on American Idol 8 months ago... she's really talented - it's a shame she had to hide it with the screaming punk stuff to break into the business.

I like her, I like the song.

I heard it for the first time on z100 the other day and went home and DL'd it on itunes so that I could share it with more people.

I like the song a LOT.

Yes, I first heard it on her CD many months ago. I thought it would never be released as a single, too controversial. I really like it.

Re: Has anyone heard this song by Pink?

Yup. I use it in my ESL class to talk about American politics. It is very interesting to here students from foreign countries talk about how they feel about the American president. They really like to talk about it b/c we are in Australia and not the US and it is a different conversation. They are a bit hesitant with me b/c I am American, but it gets them talking.
