Happy New Year! James Brown said it all 35 years ago in his song “Funky President”:
Hey, country
Didn’t say what you meant
Just changed
Brand new funky PresidentStock market going up
Jobs going down
And ain’t no funking
Jobs to be found[…]
People, people
We got to get together
Get on the good foot
Change it, yeah
I think 2009 is going to be a good one.
