The rap on 89

The proponents of Proposition 89, the publicly financed campaigns initiative, are again working on earned media. The latest gambit is a Prop. 89 rap: t's about time for Prop. 89 What's goin' on in Sac Town is blowin' my mind "Big Boys Club" by grand design Are leaving Californians far behind Cause in Sac Town - you have to pay to play Thanks for your vote but you just can't stay All you big money boys with all the big green Take a message: it's time to come clean Chorus Californians, Get up on your feet Proposition 89 We're takin it to the streets Californians, Rise up and shine Send the big boys a message Yes on 89 Politicians and big money power Are tucked away in an ivory tower Called the Capitol - they got it up for sale But they're breakin' the law and goin' to jail Political corruption is on the rise Donations are comin' in super-size Californians need a little bit of love But we can't get in to the "Big Boys Club" Chorus Can't get health if you don't have wealth Can't fix schools if we don't have tools Can't afford the gas, to fill up the tank Big Boys are takin' us to the bank Proposition 89 is real reform The corporations hate it like a lover's scorn They want freedom - to buy politicians Of course they would rather keep with tradition Watch the music video here, dawg.
