Get Me Off This Coin A

1, 2
1, 2, 3, 4

i freed the slaves and saved the union
and what thanks do i get?
a tiny portrait of my bad side on a single cent
now you give me a penny for my thoughts
i think i'll give it back
my mind is a dangerous thing now, baby
but the guy you got now is a hack

so get me off of this coin
'cos i don't like either side
who did tell you life's either/or now?
they surely lied!
