Ok, now for a 180 degree turn. from salvation to sin city! My sisters are planning a trip for their 21st b-day and it reminded me of a song i was trying to write a while back so i gave it another crack...here's another demo in chipmunk voice...
if you don't who Barry is then look in the comment section
the hands don't move on the friday clock
maybe it's the batteries maybe its shock
but the time does finally tick
and then there's one grand exodus
i loosen my tie and my workplace smile
rub my eyes and breathe in life for awhile
Now Chief you decreed we should stay away
but what do the elite know anyway
Oh, we'll go by air; we'll go by ground
we'll stay the night or bust a turn-around
but either way we're Vegas bound
we'll see the city, we'll paint the town
we'll laugh and smile and maybe even frown
But Barry you can bet we're vegas bound
the shackles remain but the leash has been loosened
and after a drink we're unfettered and boozin'
our checks are small and the weekend is short
but it's ours to blow in a desert resort
Oh, we'll go by air; we'll go by ground
we'll stay the night or bust a turn-around
but either way we're Vegas bound
we'll see the city, we'll paint the town
we'll laugh and cheer and maybe even frown
But Barry you can bet we're vegas bound
Oh, the drinks are free, and the chicks are hot
I'll save you a seat by the penny slots
cuz Lord knows you already spent a lot!

ok..well the state of Nevada doesn't have a state income tax, they get most of their money from gambling tax, so the desert state is dependant on tourism. And they took a hit after 9/11 since no one wanted to fly and they suffered recently due to the bad shape of the economy. And President Obama was giving a speech to the nation but instead of saying times are tough don't spend money frivilously he singled out Vegas and said don't go to Vegas..so the mayor and pretty much everyone in vegas were very pissed and i believe he refused to see Obama when he was in Vegas. Then it all seemed to have been over until Obama did it again in another speech, then the Mayor said Obama was a slow learner.
ReplyDeletewell anyways Barrack went by Barry when he was in college, but now he's the President so usually when people call him Barry it kind of insinuates that he's a kid and naive.
Our Commander in Chief didn't actually decree but it seems very arrogant when he tells us we don't need vacations while he has already taken a few on our dime.
And the last line refers to all the money he and has wasted ..i.e. Stimulus.etc.etc
