POLITICS

Verse:  
Just tell me what you want to hear
I'll convince you that it was my idea
I don't take bribes or make shady deals
My double-standards hold to higher ideals
Vote for me and I'll change the laws for you
And you'll have a friend in high places too

Chorus:
PRESS LEAKING
DOUBLE SPEAKING
LOW-DOWN DIRTY TRICKS
POWER LUNCHING
SUCKER PUNCHING
HEY! THAT'S POLITICS!

Verse:
Demagogs and Repubikins got something up the sleeve
Truth doesn't matter, only what I make you believe
Whatever vote I cast decides what the rules will be
But the laws I make for you 'll never apply to me
Either guilty or innocent, fabricated or true acts
I've drawn my conclusions got no need for the facts

Chorus:
PRESS LEAKING
DOUBLE SPEAKING
LOW-DOWN DIRTY TRICKS
POWER LUNCHING
SUCKER PUNCHING
HEY! THAT'S POLITICS!
