Brother, U Lied To Us
BROTHER YOU LIED TO US…
When we listened to your campaign speech…
We knew we had our own gotten
When we lined up to vote for you
We knew we had ours voted…
When you promised us representation
We our craving whetted
But alas brother you lied to us!!
When you walked on foot on your campaign trail
We knew we had our own found
But when the motorcar allowance was given
You purchased a posh one
Our concerns forgotten…
We hear you attend parliament no more
You speak only to determine your allowance
That now you spot a pot belly
That you hung out at the Serena
Oh brother you lied to us
Yet we knew we had ours voted
Next you come for our votes to solicit
Knock not at my door
For you lied to us.
