Election Time

Election time When the face of the politician Looks unhappy, so sad, Just an act, a pretence, There’s a vote to be had. When he says that he cares If a poor man does fall Just one more lie Cause he’ll do bugger all He says that he listens To the everyman’s fears He nods to the camera Cries crocodile tears When he denounces Things that are bad He’s thinking elections There’s a vote to be had.
