Neil Young: Exclusive 'Impeach the President' Lyrics Wednesday, April 26, 2006 By Roger Friedman FOXNEWS.COM HOME > FOXLIFE Neil Young: Exlusive 'Impeach the President' Lyrics Neil Young’s new album, Living with War, is an incendiary, moving, totally American document of peaceful protest that is going to make a lot of people crazy one way or another. And there’s no doubt that the centerpiece of the album, a song called “Let’s Impeach The President,” performed as a melodic, rocking, campfire ode will be what causes the most controversy. For one thing, though Young has lived in California since the late 1960s, his nay-sayers will decry him as a Canadian. Others will call him unpatriotic or treasonous. But there are just as many fans of Neil Young who will cite him as a political poet, a hero, and a troubadour working in the most traditional vein of American music. Certainly “Living with War” contains the most pungent attacks on a US president in pop-rock since The Ramones recorded “Bonzo Goes to Bitburg” in the late 1980s. And Young reaches back to the original rock protest singer, Bob Dylan, calling out to him in one of the songs. But this album is no giddy hit and run. It’s far more serious and searing in its assessment of contemporary life than that, and it wouldn’t matter if it came from someone born in Kansas City or Ottawa. When Living with War starts streaming on www.neilyoung.com on Friday, my guess is the servers will overheat. The real test will come next week, when the album is available for downloading on several sites. For now, though, here are the lyrics many parents are going to be hearing their kids singing in the next few days. Young has been clever enough to write the catchiest protest song since Country Joe and the Fish’s anti-Vietnam ditty, “I Feel Like I’m Fixin’ to Die.” Here, for the first time, the lyrics to Neil Young’s “Let’s Impeach the President”: Let’s impeach the president for lying And leading our country into war Abusing all the power that we gave him And shipping all our money out the door He’s the man who hired all the criminals The White House shadows who hide behind closed doors And bend the facts to fit with their new stories Of why we have to send our men to war Let’s impeach the president for spying On citizens inside their own homes Breaking every law in the country By tapping our computers and telephones What if Al Qaeda blew up the levees Would New Orleans have been safer that way Sheltered by our government’s protection Or was someone just not home that day? Let’s impeach the president For hijacking our religion and using it to get elected Dividing our country into colors And still leaving black people neglected Thank god he’s racking down on steroids Since he sold his old baseball team There’s lot of people looking at big trouble But of course the president is clean Thank God More on Thursday morning about this extraordinary and eye opening new recording…
