If I Was President Lyrics

[chorus]

 If I was president,

 I'd get elected on Friday, assasinated on Saturday,

 and buried on Sunday.

 

 If I was president...

 If I was president

 

 An old man told me, instead of spending billions on the war,

 we can use some of that money, in the ghetto.

 I know some so poor, they use the spring as the shower,

 when screaming "fight the power".

 That's when the vulture devoured 

 

 [chorus]

 If I was president,

 I'd get elected on Friday, assasinated on Saturday,

 and buried on Sunday.

 

 If I was president...

 If I was president...

 If I was president...

 If I was president

 

 But the radio won't play this.

 They call this rebel music.

 How can you refuse it, children of moses? 

 

 [chorus]

 If I was president,

 I'd get elected on Friday, assasinated on Saturday,

 and buried on Sunday.

 

 If I was president...

 If i was president

 

 Tell the children the truth, the truth.

 Christopher Columbus didn't discover America.

 Tell them the truth.

 The truth

 YEAH! Tell them about Marcus Garvey.

 The truth YEAH! The truth.

 Tell them about Martin Luther King.

 Tell them the truth.

 The Truth.

 Tell them about JFK

 

 If I was President

 [chorus]

 If I was president,

 I'd get elected on Friday, assasinated on Saturday,

 and buried on Sunday.

 

 If I was president...

 If I was president
