GONE TOO FAR

Words & Music
Copyright by
Barry Feldman (ASCAP)

Contempt for knowledge, for teachers and for scholars
Crowding out school children by holding back the dollars

Contempt for those who work hard and play by the rules
Dismantling the livelihoods of all but you know who

Can this be what you want, to help a rich few bleed you then taunt you
Why isn't your side the one you're on, oh say can't you see how far off they've gone


Contempt for the land the air the water and the sun
Contaminating nature and blocking all restoration

Contempt for investment in crucial work creation
Wrecking basic protections and a civilized nation

Will this be what you vote for, helping a rich few hoard more and more
Why isn't your side the one you're on, oh say can't you see that it's almost gone


Contempt for other peoples opinions and customs
Dismantling world treaties and agreements and laws

Contempt for dissent, for fair elections and the right to vote
Demolishing democracy demolishing America

Can this be what you want, to help a rich few obstruct then taunt you
In your head your eyes your heart, oh say you can see that they've gone too far
