Cares For the Cares

Well, they tell you this and then tell you that. They confirm it’s this and then insist it’s that! 

They try to joke about this and get a laugh out of that. They try to use the words of heros but when they say it’s sounds like utter crap! 

They steal from them to give to that. They lie to us and then try to convince us that there was truth in that. 

They play with sincerity, they use our sorrows to make promises to heal this and that. 

But what you’ll never hear and what you’ll never see is a Tory who cares for the cares of you and me. 

Well it’s like this I know because I’ve lived here nearly half a century that a truth telling Tory is not and never will be reality.
