lyrics

in a world without leaders who'd start all our wars 
the world that you're saving will always be yours
kill the president listen to the voice of reason
unify with that single line, stop the man with the power of the government
a leaders not the center of democracy
in a world without leaders who'd make people starve
the world that we're saving will always be ours 
everyone says well mybe i'll make a difference
thinking they've got plenty of time
but you're squeezed a little tighter everyday
punished before you can commit a crime
america, all your enemys come within but you lash out so it is seen
like some frightened child in an angry world 
or the fall of rome, your demise comes from your own hands 
in a world without leaders who'd start all our wars
the world that you're saving will always be yours 
in a world without leaders we might stand a chance
but we'll never see it as long as there's
kill the president
