Mr Politician

Mr Politician by thatwasthen

the brave have stayed inside today, it’s likely they’ve said goodbye.
they’d rather burn in hell than smell your rotten lies.

hey! mister politician!
you’ve got an admission to make
hey! I ain’t no mortician,
but you can bet you’re digging your grave.
couple hundred years, flush ‘em down the drain
but you’d just rather keep it the same;
you can’t have your way…

i’ve got this sneaking suspicion you can’t take the time to listen,
which isn’t really a surprise to me.
with all the bullshit that’s flowing
i can’t tell if there’s knowing,
but in this moment your face is showing,
i can see.  it’s a convoluted time, but i’m making it mine…

you’re changing all the rules as you play the game,
and takin’ one percent of the blame; you can’t have your way…
