Ouch! This is quite an original song by Academy Award-winning composer Randy Newman. The track includes the lyrics "I'm dreaming of a White President, Just like the ones we've always had. A real live white man, who knows the score, how to handle money or start a war." Newman reportedly wrote the song from the viewpoint of a voter who casts his ballot solely based on the candidate's skin color. He says the song draws attention to racism in America, which he calls "the great issue of this country."
