Politicians

   (To be sung to the tune of “Superstition” by Stevie Wonder)

 

Various politicians

Rising in the polls,

Gaseous emissions,

Questionable goals,

Men with creepy hair-dos,

Women dressed like guys,

Stumping on the night news,

Wearing suits and ties.

 

When you believe in people you can’t even trust,

Then you suffer —-

Politicians ain’t the way.

 

Various politicians

Debating on TV,

Confirming our suspicions,

Exposed for all to see,

Raising lots of money

Images to sell,

Trying to be funny

As guests on SNL.

 

When you believe in people you can’t even trust,

Then you suffer —-

Politicians ain’t the way.

 

Various politicians

Want to build a wall

To keep out kids and Syrians

Who want to kill us all.

Talking about ISIS,

Wearing ties and coats,

Hoping war and crisis

Bring them lots of votes.   

 

When you believe in people you can’t even trust,

Then you suffer —- 

Politicians ain’t the way.
