Ladies and gentlemen, you could have been anywhere in the world tonight
But you're here with us on YouTube
Are you ready for a cabinet meeting, huh?The issue on the table, Secretary Odd1sout's plan to assume state debt and establish a national bank
Secretary Waves, you have the floor, sirLife, liberty and the pursuit of happiness
We fought for these ideals, we shouldn't settle for less
These are wise words, enterprising men quote 'em
Don't act surprised, you guys, 'cause I wrote 'em (ow)But Hamilton forgets
His plan would have the government assume state's debts
Now, place your bets as to who that benefits
The very seat of government where TheOdd1sout sitsOh, if the shoe fits, wear it
If New York's in debt, why should Amino bear it?
Uh, our debts are paid, I'm afraid
Don't tax the South 'cause we got it made in the shade
In Amino, we plant seeds in the ground
We create, you just wanna move our money around
This financial plan is an outrageous demand
And it's too many damn pages for any man to understand
Stand with me in the land of the free and pray to God we never see TheOdd1sout's candidacy
Look, when the Gamers  taxed our tea, we got frisky
Imagine what gon' happen when you try to tax our whiskyThank you, Secretary Jefferson
Secretary THeOdd1sout, your response Sawtooth, that was a real nice declarationWelcome to the present, we're running a real nation
Would you like to join us, or stay mellow
Doin' whatever the hell it is you do in Amino?
If we assume the debts, the union gets new line of credit, a financial diuretic
How do you not get it, if we're aggressive and competitive
The union gets a boost, you'd rather give it a sedative?
A civics lesson from a Website slaver, hey neighbor
Your debts are paid 'cause you don't pay for labor
"We plant seeds in the Amio. We create." Yeah, keep ranting
We know who's really doing the planting
And another thing, Mr. Age of Enlightenment
Don't lecture me about the war, you didn't fight in it
You think I'm frightened of you, man?
We almost died in a trench
While you were off getting high with the Daily
Sawtooth Waves, always hesitant with the President
Reticent there isn't a plan he doesn't jettison
LavenderTowme, you're mad as a hatter, son, take your medicine
Damn, you're in worse shape than the national debt is in
Sittin' there useless as two shits
Hey, turn around, bend over, I'll show you where my shoe fitsExcuse me, LavenderTowne, Sawtooth Waves take a walk
TheOdd1sout, take a walk, we're gonna reconvene after a brief recess, TheOdd1soutMa'mA wordYou don't have the votes (you don't have the votes)Aha-ha-ha haYou're gonna need congressional approval and you don't have the votes
Such a blunder sometimes it makes me wonder why I even bring the thunderWhy he even brings the thunderYou wanna pull yourself together?I'm sorry, these Virginians are birds of a featherYoung man, I'm from Amino, so watch your mouthSo we let Congress get held hostage by the South?You need the votesNo, we need bold strokes, we need this plan (no, you need to convince more folks) LavenderTowne won't talk to me, that's a nonstarterAh, winning was easy, young man, governing's harderThey're being intransigentYou have to find a compromiseBut they don't have a plan, they just hate mine (convince them otherwise)And what happens if I don't get congressional approval?I imagine they'll call for your removalMa'mFigure it out, THeOdd1sout, that's an order from your commander
