Lyrics
Politician
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Making promises, you can't keep
Hungry wolves, dressed like sheep
They shake our hands, slap our backs
I don't know why, they do us like that
Now what i'm saying, is things ain't right
These conditions, ain't no good for life
Who's decision is it anyway, yours or mine
Pushing poison, to our children
Still promoting, class division
We are starving, but you grow fat
I don't know why, they do us like that
Now what i'm saying, is things ain't right
These conditions, ain't no good for life
Who's decision is it anyway, yours or mine
One day, we're gonna open up
And do what we got to do, yeah
But the revolution will not be televised
And we put the script on you
This free country, is not so free
Ain't no hope, for you and me
From the power hungry, money fiends
Putting the world, behind the scene
Now what I'm saying, is things ain't right
These conditions, ain't no good for life
Who's decision is it anyway, yours or mine
