A commentary on the 2005 Bush administration’s delayed response to the victims of Hurricane Katrina
lyrics
Katrina – Forsaken Place
(a commentary on the 2005 Bush administration’s delayed response to the victims of Hurricane Katrina)
There’s not much wealth so what’s to lose –
the French Quarter, – some jazz and blues?
The levee might hold, and it might break,
but the forces in Iraq are in their place.
Think it over at your ease;
don’t want to rush and spread disease.
Don’t mind the drownings, the desperate pleas,
the missing children, the sick and elderly.
These waters of a forsaken place,
these tears of a forsaken place – hear the people.
Their salvation compromised
by days and weeks politicized –
the bureaucracy takes precedence
over the waters’ nameless faces.
So you turn a blind eye to your own storm.
You give no answer, leave them forlorn.
Do you feel nothing for the women raped
after their lives had been saved?
These waters of a forsaken place,
these tears that wash their hopes away – hear the people.
These are the pictures the world will see;
these are people you say you lead –
hear the people; hear the people, hear.
