The Lyrics
Tax and spend Democrats, what else is new?
Gray Davis went fund raising at a union hall one day
He wanted all their money and their votes on election day
Then all at once a ton of cash for promises he'd made
Was blowin' all around him and he grabbed all he could take
Bribery, bribery! Misdeeds in office high.
Gray Davis won the gov'norship and he raised the taxes high
Tax 'n tax 'n tax so much that business said good buy
Now California is a state where many poor folks sigh
For they jacked up the taxes and employers said good buy
Bribery, bribery! Misdeeds in office high.
Gray Davis 'll run for President and the folks will say no way
He'll ruin California with those high taxes we'll pay
Spent them into bankruptcy will be his legacy
For they jacked up the taxes and employers went away
Bribery, bribery! Misdeeds in office high.
He wanted all their money and their votes on election day
Then all at once a ton of cash for promises he'd made
Was blowin' all around him and he grabbed all he could take
Bribery, bribery! Misdeeds in office high.
Gray Davis won the gov'norship and he raised the taxes high
Tax 'n tax 'n tax so much that business said good buy
Now California is a state where many poor folks sigh
For they jacked up the taxes and employers said good buy
Bribery, bribery! Misdeeds in office high.
Gray Davis 'll run for President and the folks will say no way
He'll ruin California with those high taxes we'll pay
Spent them into bankruptcy will be his legacy
For they jacked up the taxes and employers went away
Bribery, bribery! Misdeeds in office high.
