When you were elected
The world cried for joy
We thought we had empowered
The truth telling envoy
Now the news is you are spying
Executing without trial
Betraying virtues
Scarring closed the sky
Punishing the whistle blowers
Those who tell the truth
Do you recognize the yellow
staring back at you?
Obama
Obama
Obama
All the hope drained from your face
Like children we believed
The world cried for joy
We thought we had empowered
The truth telling envoy
Now the news is you are spying
Executing without trial
Betraying virtues
Scarring closed the sky
Punishing the whistle blowers
Those who tell the truth
Do you recognize the yellow
staring back at you?
Obama
Obama
Obama
All the hope drained from your face
Like children we believed

Uno dei brani più amari è Obama. Il presidente l’ha delusa?
“Avevo molte speranze. Ha fatto anche un buon lavoro ma non è certo diventato il salvatore che tutti volevamo. Ripensandoci è stato infantile sperarlo. A questo punto penso che se vogliamo cambiare la traiettoria della nostra specie servirà un grande movimento globale”.
