Politician

Verse 1
Up in the morning and up in your head
There’s a shaky kind of feeling and more to be said
Your life is full of guilt and your heart feels the weight
You could swear somebody’s watching you and you think it’s too late.

Bridge
Enemies, Perjury, Lies by the dozens
Money talks for you and it mocks all the others.
Enemies, Perjury, Lies by the dozens
Money talks for you and it mocks all the others.

Verse 2
A higher position you’ve surely achieved
Well you walk with your head high; say, “Believe in me!”
With a hard won promise and a shake of the hand
You say you’ll give us the planets just as soon as we land.

Bridge
Enemies, Perjury, Lies by the dozens
Money talks for you and it mocks all the others.
Enemies, Perjury, Lies by the dozens
Money talks for you and it mocks all the others.

Verse 3
All of my life I was taught to believe
In honest love of country you can take it from me
It’s come to be more evident, just who and what is relevant
You see it in the economy as it goes down in history.

Bridge
Enemies, Perjury, Lies by the dozens
Money talks for you and it mocks all the others.
Enemies, Perjury, Lies by the dozens
Money talks for you and it mocks all the others.
