Democracy Seed
They live off of taxpayer money
and whatever they make on the side
from the donors who keep them in Office
a congressional bribery ride
They care not for the needs of their voters
for Republicans have their own plan
to hold on to their places in Congress
for as long as they possibly can
So they cast all their votes for the money
take vacation til voters cool down
But their votes still belong to the donors
as they bow to the mad, orange clown
The American system is broken
it is up to The People to lead
fix the old, make the good even better
plant anew, a democracy seed
