Politics

Teljes mű / Kész

Politicians so often make us sigh,

They say one thing, and do another why?

They know what to say and when to lie,

But when it comes to action, nothing by and by.

 

They make grandiose promises, that's what they do,

But when it comes to keeping them, they fail, that's true.

They think they'll get away with it, but they never do,

Cause the people will make sure they pay, me oh my oh.

 

They'll scheme and plot and connive,

To make sure they survive,

They'll make promises they can't keep,

And still not get a peep.

 

They'll talk and talk and talk some more,

But when it comes to action they'll just ignore.

They'll babble on and on,

But when it comes time to act they'll be long gone.

 

The politicians they come, and the politicians they go,

But the people they always know,

That when it comes to action, nothing can show,

That's why you can never trust a politician, you know.
