Lyrics
Mr. 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.
Mr. Position sitting on your perch
Looking at the numbers, thinking what we're worth
You're price is your conscience when though it allowed
So put your finger infidel
We're only good when we're down
What can we say what suspense?
From the wings of democracy they say is right
So we can go forth with hand in hand
listen to our betters make dead a man
but don't forget where you've come from
Down at the bottom where you belong
Would it do any good if I voted for a leech?
Maybe the leech would practice what he preached
They don't give a fuck
They don't give a toss
Your vote for a pig, it wont be no loss
Mr. Position sitting on your perch
Looking at the numbers, thinking what we're worth
You're price is your conscience when though it allowed
So put your finger infidel
We're only good when we're down
Mr. Politician
Mr. Politician
Mr. Politician
Practice what you preach
