Circles In the Sky
yeah yeah so here I am at the voting booth
the voting booth
if we only had some tabloids I'd know what to do
one devoted to digging up the dirt, the perks, and the poop
on this gal and that guy with sincerity and truth
yeah yeah at the voting boooooooth
the voting booooooooth
because I'm freeeeee
the commies had one guy to vote for and
we got two and sometimes threeeee
and I don't know any of theeeese
Hmmm let's see
to whom shall I cast my vote
think any of these are full of good deeds
think any of them are
vote for me vote for me
I need this job so please please please
think any of them are blue collar
or are very poor with mouths to feed
or an American brother who knows what it is to be
in need
yeah
an American brother
that's what we need
somebody like us
somebody who sees
someone with integrity and heart
fears God and bleeds
know no no no
I don't know none of these
let's seeee
we got this thief or that thief
crawling out of the rats nest
hungry to go meet their new boss
big world lobbyists
yeah the real boss
big world lobbyists
green horn and don't you know
their gonna eat'chew alive
you better learn real fast
how to cheat and lie
and the only love I can see in DC is in
the vultures eyes
their hungry hugry eyes
and you know they don't kill
no no they don't kill
just patiently wait for you to die
circles in the sky
laughing so hard they cry
working man better stand up
working man better stand up
I think we need to police the greed
and string up the guilty
enough is enough
and we don't want you ruling over us
anymore know no no more
we need to police the greed
and string the guilty up
before they completely destroy us
I think we could all agree
that the problem is greed
yeah we need to police greed in
Washington DC
and string up the guilty
if we ever want to be free
again
