Once upon a time when we were hippies
When we used to take bong hits or two
Remember how we planned away the hours
Scheming of the capitalists we would screw

Those were the days my friend
TEA Party brought to end
We'd tax and spend forever and not pay
They'd live the life we choose
We'd tax and never lose
Because we won, The press looked the other way
Lie Lie Lie Lie Lie...

Then the November elections hit us
We lost our starry notions on the way
If by chance I'd see you at the presser
We'd smile at one another and we'd say

Those were the days my friend
TEA Party brought to end
We'd tax and spend forever and not pay
They'd live the life we choose
We'd tax and never lose
Because we won, The press looked the other way
Lie Lie Lie Lie Lie...

Just tonight I stood before my lectern
Nothing seemed the way it used to be
In the prompter was a strange reflection
Was that one speaking really me

Those were the days my friend
TEA Party brought to end
We'd tax and spend forever and not pay
They'd live the life we choose
We'd tax and never lose
Because we won, The press looked the other way
Lie Lie Lie Lie Lie...

Through the door there came TEA Party laughter
I hid my face my policies they defame
In the end I'm bolder but not wiser
In my heart "Dreams Of My Father" still remain

Those were the days my friend
TEA Party brought to end
We'd tax and spend forever and not pay
They'd live the life we choose
We'd tax and never lose
Because we won, The press looked the other way
Lie Lie Lie Lie Lie...


Might be easier to follow

I cannot understand lack of viewings from collective for most equal hooliganistic treatment of one of 500 greatest songs of entire Balalaika Rock era, Comrade director. I fully applaud this effort. Already have I sung this many times in my cell

Perhaps when collective sees video of the song being sung in mother tongue by a "goryachayeh ptentsa" (hotter chick) there will be more enthusiasm

Thank you for your most noble and equal effort. The comradista guards aren't any where near that hot.
