Adjusting To Change

Politicians say things which seem so strange They tell us we need to adjust to change The reason America is in this big rut Congress convenes with their heads up their butt Meanwhile we try to do what they say We are adjusting to change, it’s what’s left of our pay They are overtaxing the middle class And kissing everyone else’s (you guessed it) I’m tired and angry, feeling betrayed and upset I haven’t met an honest politician yet If he were honest he couldn’t get re-elected The machine has the winners pre-selected While they are lining their pockets with gold We have been brainwashed to do what we’re told You ask me what’s got my goat? It’s the choices we have when we go to vote.
