Thank you
I didn't write any campaign songs
back in 88
to cause me to do that
which I wrote years ago, to be able to sing in
state, local, federal, it didn't matter.
And it was designed for that, frankly,
because I reached a point back there
about 10 years or so ago
when I got a little fed up with writing
songs
for my kind of presidential candidates
who were invariably out
of money
and out of the race by the Iowa caucus,
leaving me stranded with
a song
and no one for whom to sing it.
And I just, I don't know, I just thought to myself,
I got to get a little less specific
with these things.
General principles,
I said, that's what I'll do.
I will write an all -encompassing,
all -embracing political song
which I can always do.
And the way I'll do that, I said,
it's going to take some broad strokes.
I'll have to plumb down there
to the depth of bedrock
of American political thought
and get down there to the very heart and soul,
the root and branch
of American political philosophy,
where I found absolutely
nothing.
Came back up,
wrote a superficial whiz,
which has been working just fine
for about, as I say, about 10 years.
Now, of course, I do always hesitate to sing the song in California,
where I know that politics
had generally conducted
on a much loftier moral plane
than most others.
