Story behind the song
Gee, I can't stand this guy. Here's a partial list of what he's done wrong since seizing power, written in a rhyming, catchy manner with a singable chorus.
Lyrics
What Have You Done (c) 2003 Heather Lev What have you done? What have you done, What have you done, this time-- Thief of our country What have you done? You lied so our nation went to war You lost us our allies, and what for How many have died, how many more What have you done? You sold off our radio waves today You sold off our Nation's parks they say You sold off our overtime pay Till nothing is left to sell away What have you done?... You cut: Americorps and Medicare Education, you don't care Reproductive health care funds Ergonomic protections Books for children of the poor Stem cell research to find a cure Unemployment benefits But you cut the taxes of the rich What have you done?... You hide the reports on eleventh of September Reports on global warming weather On the deficit you made On layoffs and government aid Reports on the NASA Shuttle crash And reports on Enron's hidden cash And every record of your rule Is hidden cause you are a fool What have you done... What have you done this time We'll find you out, What have you done. Won't sign the germ warfare treaty Won't sign the ABM treaty Won't sign the Kyoto treaty How did the US get so greedy? You let the crowd loot Iraqi treasures Halliburton take drastic measures Multinational corporations Own you and your machinations You say that it's an orange alert People like us might get hurt But security money's out of reach It's time we voted to impeach What have you done? We're gonna get you on the run You are not a fortunate son Your election was not even won What have you done.
