LYRICS: Paychecks are flat and home values are falling | It’s hard to pay for gas | Deficits are exploding | We need to change direction | Our economy’s in turmoil | This isn’t just a string of bad luck | We were told four years ago | That’s why we need change | We were told four years ago | Real change | We were told four years ago | That’s why we need change | We were told four years ago | Real change | We’ve heard a lot of talk about change this year | The real question is: change to what? | Change is a president who puts you first | And that’s what this election’s all about | We were told four years ago | Real change | We were told four years ago | That’s why we need change | We were told four years ago | Real change | How’s that hope and change working out for you? | Did it give you all that you want it to? | Did it lead you into the promised land? | Next time you step inside of the voting booth | Maybe you will think of the honest truth | Instead of raising a foolish man | At this defining moment all across America | Here’s what I believe we need to do | We can fast track a plan – create millions of jobs | Our troubled ecomony isn’t news | We were told four years ago | That’s why we need change | We were told four years ago | Real change | We were told four years ago | That’s why we need change | We were told four years ago | Real change | How’s that hope and change working out for you? | Did it give you all that you want it to? | Did it lead you into the promised land? | Next time you step inside of the voting booth | Maybe you will think of the honest truth | Instead of raising a foolish man | I know that we can steer ourselves out of this crisis | We’ve met tough challenges before | We can stop spending billions once and for all | And put millions of Americans to work | We were told four years ago | That’s why we need change | We were told four years ago | Real change | We were told four years ago | That’s why we need change | We were told four years ago | Real change | Well | Now let’s set the record straight | Those who would trade our freedom for security have embarked on this downward course | We’ve raised our debt, we haven’t balanced our budget | The assault on freedom carries on | The trouble with our liberal friends is not their ignorance | They know so much that isn’t so | Each year the need grows greater – the program grows greater | The more the plans fail the more the planners plan | How’s that hope and change working out for you? | Did it give you all that you want it to? | Did it lead you into the promised land? | Next time you step inside of the voting booth | Maybe you will think of the honest truth | Instead of raising a foolish man ||
