An old hippie song, now perfect about Obamacare

I heard this song the other day, haven't in a while. Always loved the guitar in it, though. Never really paid that much attention to the words until I heard it then. I thought, "Well, we've come halfway around the bend there, haven't we weed-smokin', war-protestin' hippie-boy?"

Sunshine, by Jonathan Edwards
Sunshine go away today
I don't feel much like dancing.
Someone's come he's trying to run my life
don't believe what he's asking.
He tells me I'd better get in line,
Don't believe what he's saying.
When I grow up I'm going to make it mine,
But these aren't dues I been paying
Chorus:
But how much does it cost? (I'll buy it)
The time is all we've lost (I'll try it)
But he can't even run his own life
I'll be danged if he'll run mine, Sunshine.
Sunshine go away today,
I don't feel much like dancing
Someone's come he's trying to run my life,
Don't believe what he's asking.
Working starts to make you wonder where
The fruits of what I do are going.
He says in love and war all is fair,
But he's got cards he ain't showing.
Chorus:
But how much does it cost? (I'll buy it)
The time is all we've lost (I'll try it)
But he can't even run his own life
I'll be danged if he'll run mine, Sunshine.
Sunshine come on back another day,
Pretty soon I'll be singing.
This old world, gonna turn around,
Brand new bells will be ringing.
[Chorus].
