Yes! Yes!! Yes!!! - wonderful forgotten anti-bush* tune
Yes! Yes!! Yes!!!
by Barenaked Ladies

http://yodermon.100free.com/yes_yes_yes!.mp3


Enough is enough is enough is enough is enough is enough is enough again
I called your bluff 'cause you think you're so tough
Because you can make enemies out of friends
I am getting sleepy; I'm in your command
Yes yes yes I understand
Yes yes yes I understand

Over and over and over and over and over and over and over again
The experts concur so we're sure it occurred
We infer the sword is mighter than the pen
You are in Atlanta
I am in a band
Yes yes yes I'm in a band
Yes yes yes I understand

A fact is a fact is a fact is a fact is a fact is a fact to misunderstand
And all the detractors who question the cracks
Have been asked to retract or face reprimand

You are always lying
I am on the lam.
Yes yes yes I understand
Yes yes yes I understand

Repetition of suspicion
Takes a lie and makes it true


Nearer and nearer and nearer and nearer and nearer and nearar to our demise
The fear we adhere to appears to be steering
Our ears to where we're only hearing lies
With us or against us
The line is in the sand
Yes yes yes I understand

Yes yes yes I understand
Repetition of suspicion
Takes a lie and makes it true


This track was only on the bonus DVD that accompanied their last album "Everything to Everyone". It was not on the general-release CD. Which is why it is hard to find, and no-one's heard it. I'm not even sure if it's for sale anymore. Here is the amazon link to the album, but this track is not listed. http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B0000CC6QC/qid=1119588767/sr=1-2/ref=sr_1_2/104-1120013-9538369?v=glance&s=music
Maybe it's on i-tunes. :shrug:

2. Stephan Smith
check out www.stephansmith.com You aint a cowboy and the bell video . There free online and well worth the download.
Heres a sample from you aint a cowboy

Do you remember when they flew you out on the boat
And your pr firm inflanted your coat
Was that a vain hope your lies would float or by chance
A million of children would look at your pants?

Theres more but I dont want to spoil the lyrics for you.

5. How about this one
~Paula Cole - "My Hero, Mr. President"

Yea, Yea
Yea, Yea, Yea

Well hello there, blue blooded boy
Your bed is lined with dollars
I bet you're cumming oil

I love the way you take control and push the world around
United Nations- Ha,ha
No one can keep you down

Daddy's little helper, silver foot in your mouth
Policeman of the world gonna start another war
Connecticut yankee in a cowboy hat
You're my hero, Mr. president

Remember the elections for the presidency
No matter the call of the majority
Your cousin married Fox TV, he declared you were the one
Your brother came through with his promise he'd get Florida

(Chorus)

Now what you gonna do about our economy
You spend three trillion dollars in a heartbeat
Now what about us folks who live hand to mouth
We can't afford our lives, and we're working three jobs

(chorus)

Now Don't you want your grand children to see the colorado river?
You're kissing so much corporate ass that
You're selling away our future

We can all wear our geo-thermal suits and toast to you 'W'

Now wiping out the terrorists, that's fine by me
But please don't erode our civil liberties
The America we fight for and hold so dear
Includes a woman's right to choose
Freedom of religion, freedom of assembly
And free speech like the song I'm singing here
(chorus)

Daddy's little helper, silver spoon in your mouth
The Policeman of the world gonna kick Hussein's butt
Connecticut yankee in a cowboy hat
You're my hero, Mr. President
You're my hero, Mr. President
You're our nero, Mr. President
Mmmhmm
