and I'm thinking, "Great! Maybe now something will change."
but surprise, surprise, all the candidates are the same
Well, I've been holding my breath and I've been hoping for the best
but now I'll have to close my eyes when I make my X
'cause I don't see the point 'cause there's not one there to see
and if there is a difference could you point it out to me?
Will it always be a choice between the devil or his twin?
Anyway you slice it, it's never us that wins
and if there was a difference, it's long been sucked away
A hand is shook, a promise sold, a smile in place, a story told
A day is named, a door is closed, a mask exchanged, no scam exposed
CHORUS:
and we've been screaming for years, but it falls on deaf ears
Why is it all we ever get is short-sighted power-hungry jerks?
I'm not totally against the system, I just want it to work
Slight of hand of the political practice
One turns the screws while the other distracts us
The doctor is sick and nobody cares
Promises, promises, rarely kept
Cream of the crap of the inept
The doctor is sick and nobody cares
CHORUS:
and we've been screaming for years, but it falls on deaf ears
Why is it all we ever get is narrow-minded egocentric jerks?
I'm not totally against the system, I just want it, I just want
it, I just want it to work
["Government!"]
and there's still nobody to vote for
Nobody to vote for
Still nobody to vote for
and there's still nobody to vote for
We're paying for the sceptre like we paid for the crown
The price keeps going up while the qualities go down
You're talking like I'm crazy when I say the system's flawed
How can you say there's not a problem when you see who's at the top?
A hand is shook, a promise sold, a smile in place, a story told,
a day is named, a door is closed, a mask exchanged, no scam exposed
CHORUS:
And we've been screaming for years, but it falls on deaf ears
Why is it all we ever get is self-serving elitist jerks?
I'm not totally against the system, I just want it, I just want
it, I just want it to work
["Government!"]
and there's still nobody to vote for
Nobody to vote for
Still nobody to vote for
and there's still nobody to vote for
Vote for
Nobody to vote for
Still nobody to vote for
and there's still nobody to vote for
