The Lyrics
Written in 1996 - satire about then House Speaker Newt Gingrich and the Republican attack on environmental protection during President Clinton's administration
(instrumental intro)
Said Newt Gingrich to the President
Do you see what I see?
We are way in debt, President
Do you see what I see?
Big budget cuts, drafted in the night
And all programs are prone for a bite
And all programs are prone for a bite
Said the President to the G.O.P.
Do you fear what I fear?
Read between the lines, G.O.P.
Do you fear what I fear?
It's wrong, it's wrong, to cut down the trees
And allow pollution to be
And allow pollution to be
Said the G.O.P. to the EPA
Do you know what we know?
Cut your programs now, EPA
Do you know what we know?
You're wild, you're wild, and you are too bold
We will make your agency fold
We will make your agency fold
EPA said to people everywhere
Listen to what we say!
Pray for health, people everywhere,
Listen to what we say!
We'll fight, we'll fight, for what's right and fair
We will bring clean water and air
We will bring clean water and air
Said Newt Gingrich to the President
Do you see what I see?
We are way in debt, President
Do you see what I see?
Big budget cuts, drafted in the night
And all programs are prone for a bite
And all programs are prone for a bite
Said the President to the G.O.P.
Do you fear what I fear?
Read between the lines, G.O.P.
Do you fear what I fear?
It's wrong, it's wrong, to cut down the trees
And allow pollution to be
And allow pollution to be
Said the G.O.P. to the EPA
Do you know what we know?
Cut your programs now, EPA
Do you know what we know?
You're wild, you're wild, and you are too bold
We will make your agency fold
We will make your agency fold
EPA said to people everywhere
Listen to what we say!
Pray for health, people everywhere,
Listen to what we say!
We'll fight, we'll fight, for what's right and fair
We will bring clean water and air
We will bring clean water and air
