Washington On Your Side Video (MV)

It must be nice, it must be nice

To have Washington on your side

It must be nice, it must be nice

To have Washington on your side



Ev'ry action has its equal, opposite reactions

Thanks to Hamilton, our cab'net's fractured into factions

Try not to crack under the stress, we're breaking down like fractions

We smack each other in the press, and we don't print retractions

I get no satisfaction witnessing his fits of passion

The way he primps and preens and dresses like the pits of fashion

Our poorest citizens, our farmers, live ration to ration

As Wall Street robs 'em blind in search of chips to cash in

This prick is askin' for someone to bring him to task

Somebody gimme some dirt on this vacuous mass so we can at last unmask him

I'll pull the trigger on him, someone load the gun and cock it

While we were all watching, he got Washington in his pocket



It must be nice, it must be nice

To have Washington on your side

It must be nice, it must be nice

To have Washington on your side



Look back at the Bill of Rights



Which I wrote



The ink hasn't dried

It must be nice, it must be nice

To have Washington on your side



So he's doubled the size of the government

Wasn't the trouble with much of our previous government size



Look in his eyes



See how he lies



Follow the scent of his enterprise



Centralizing national credit

And making American credit competitive



If we don't stop it we aid and abet it



I have to resign



Somebody has to stand up for the South



Somebody has to stand up to his mouth



If there's a fire you're trying to douse



You can't put it out from inside the house



I'm in the cabinet, I am complicit in

Watching him grabbin' at power and kissin' it

If Washington isn't gon' listen

To disciplined dissidents, this is the difference

This kid is out



Oh

This immigrant isn't somebody we chose

Oh

This immigrant's keeping us all on our toes

Oh

Let's show these Federalists who they're up against

Oh



Southern motherf*ckin'



Democratic Republicans



Oh



Now follow the money and see where it goes



Oh



Because every second the Treasury grows



Oh



If we follow the money and see where it leads

Get in the weeds, look for the seeds of

Hamilton's misdeeds



It must be nice, it must be nice



Follow the money and see where it goes



It must be nice, it must be nice



The emperor has no clothes



We won't be invisible, we won't be denied

Still

It must be nice, it must be nice

To have Washington on your side
