DON'T KNOW MUCH by Joel Landy
(to the tune "What a Wonderful World" by Sam Cooke)
Don't know much about history.
Don't know much foreign policy.
I don't know the names of men I kill,
Or implications of the seats I fill.
But I do know who has paid my way.
For corporate interests and the NRA
What a wonderful world this will be.
Don't know much about ecology.
Cutting trees has always worked for me.
And I don't know about the women's vote,
And I can't think of any bill I wrote.
But there's one thing that I know for sure,
If the rich stay rich and the poor stay poor
What a wonderful world this will be.
I never claimed to be an A student,
But I don't have to be.
If you have deep pockets and sell nuclear rockets
You're a friend of my family.
Don't know much about air pollution.
Don't know much about the Constitution.
Don't care much for solar energy.
There's nothing in it for my friends and me.
And if we can't find any on our soil
We can go to war and get more oil, and
What a wonderful world this will be.
Don't know much about the driving rules.
Don't know much about the public schools.
Don't know why the inner cities fail
Why can't folks get dad to pay for Yale?
And if the issues causing you to lose
Are never covered in the evening news,
What a wonderful world this will be.
I never claimed to be an A student,
But I don't have to be.
If you have a brother who's the Florida Governor,
The result's no mystery.
Don't know much about history.
Don't know much foreign policy.
Don't know much about the national debt.
I never had to pay one off yet.
But I do know who has paid my way.
For special interests in the USA
What a wonderful world this will be.
