lyrics

They should sell presidents at Walmart
We would have thirty days to try them out
And if they didn't work how they said they would
We'd return them to the warehouse

There's be a choice of affiliation
Of age of gender and of race
They'd come with batteries included
And they'd probably be on sale

We could redefine both major parties
And really jump start this weird land
Besides if the president's a puppet
Don't you wanna' be the hand

Imagine posing with the president
You'd look so big next to him or her
The only question I can't answer
Is who decides what each one's worth
