    Текст песни Flooded

    Pounded by the hurricane but finished off by the government
    Trapped in Katrina?s aftermath by George?s emergency management
    Stranded on the rooftops are the people left for dead
    Waving franticly to their leader, who?s flying safely overhead
    He?s been too busy raising money for his own political gain
    To throw the city a lifeline when it?s sinking down the drain
    So the supplies supposedly on route meet another inexplicable delay
    The rising tide of bureaucracy has washed all hope away
    Flooded with bureaucracy
    Flooded with the lies
    Flooded with excuses as the political damage starts to rise
    Wading through the politics
    Wading through the culpable
    Wading through the talking points that defend those most responsible
    Submerged under the failure
    Submerged under inaction
    Submerged under the photo-ops staged as a distraction
    Drowned by the incompetence
    Drowned by the indifference
    Drowned by the government?s undisputable negligence
    The backdrop is erected and the cameras relay the determination
    Of a battered incompetent president looking to stop the devastation
    Not for the victims but for his own declining ratings
    So he parades his presence in front of the nation to initiate the rebuilding
    Not of New Orleans but solely for his image
    It?s only his agenda that he really wants to salvage
    Empty promises of endless resources, his absence rationalized
    He flies in for his photo-op and afterwards his commitment subsides
    Flooded with bureaucracy
    Flooded with the lies
    Flooded with excuses as the political damage starts to rise
    Wading through the politics
    Wading through the culpable
    Wading through the talking points that defend those most responsible
    Submerged under the failure
    Submerged under inaction
    Submerged under the photo-ops staged as a distraction
    Drowned by the incompetence
    Drowned by the indifference
    Drowned by the government?s undisputable negligence
    If you are poor
    It?s time to sink or swim
    If you are black
    It?s time to sink or swim
    Those people were forgotten
    Those people were stranded
    Those people were betrayed
    Those people were abandoned
    He promised to protect the people but he?s abandoned them instead
    In terms of Bush?s legacy what?s another thousand dead?
    He rounded up the National Guard to defend American interests in Iraq
    When he can?t even defend this country against a hurricane?s attack
    He embraces cronyism and surrounds himself with friends
    The unqualified allies that he installed are the only people he defends
    A pat on the back for Chertoff and words of praise for Brown
    As they all stood idly by and watched an entire city drown
    Flooded with bureaucracy
    Flooded with the lies
    Flooded with excuses as the political damage starts to rise
    Wading through the politics
    Wading through the culpable
    Wading through the talking points that defend those most responsible
    Submerged under the failure
    Submerged under inaction
    Submerged under the photo-ops staged as a distraction
    Drowned by the incompetence
    Drowned by the indifference
    Drowned by the government?s undisputable negligence
