[Verse 1]

D              A                          Em  G                  D
Mother I'm  a stranger in a strange land, I feel like an alien  
                A               Em   G                          D
Like I'm on the outside lookin' in, I don't seem to fit in
          A                    Em      G                         D
Maybe I'm Aladdin with a rusty lamp,the genie never stood a chance
   A                       Em
To make all my wishes come true
G                          D       
But here's what I wanna do


[Chorus]
          A            Em    G             D
I'm gonna lean on the 1% when I'm President
             A       Em G                 D
I want a 28th Amendment when I'm President


[Verse 2]

      A                   Em   G                         D
Like thieves on a Holy road, digging up the mother lode
      A                   Em       G               D
Like pirates on the open sea, like highway robbery
      A                   Em     G                           D
Still whining 'bout your bonus, man up, you’re ridiculous
       A                        Em     G                   D
You know you can't take it with ya, so give a little extra


[Chorus]

          A            Em  G                  D   
I'm gonna lean on the 1% when I'm President
          A               Em      G                D
No more bargains in the basement when I'm President


[Break]

D            A          Em                  G                   D
Washington, Jefferson, watch out, baby, 'cause here I come
         A                     Em                      G
Abraham, Theodore, you're gonna see my ugly mug up on Mount Rushmore, yeah

D      A                   Em        G                       D
You go in with the right intent when you become President
    A                           Em       G                            D
You hold those truths to be self-evident when you become president
                   A                    Em      G                    D
But something happens to you up on the hill, it's business as usual
              A                 Em         G                    D
How do you wanna buck the system ? Welcome to the Pit and the Pendulum


[Chorus]

           A          Em  G                 D
I'm gonna lean on the 1% when I'm President
          A           Em   G                 D
No more 28th amendment when I'm President
          A                  Em   G                D
No more bargains in the basement when I'm President
         A                  Em   G                 D
Everything's gonna be different when I'm President
                 A     Em       G                                     D
Veto this, Veto that, When I'm President I'll stick it to the fat Cat
                A                      Em                G                  D
Cross my heart, hope to die,  to die  When I'm President pigs are gonna fly
