Just To Get Elected

Is there nothing they wont do The depths that they'll sink to Moral hypocrisy they'll let loose Underhanded that they will use Just to get elected... Lies that they perceive Putting dirty in the dirty deeds Nothing at that they wont sneeze Open Hell's gates and set them free Just to get elected... Tell us what we want to hear Playing off our biggest fears The headlights to our road deer Always sounding so sincere Just to get elected... Tell us that they do but don't Tell us that they will but won't All in hopes they don't get caught Never ever taking fault Just to get elected... Digging up the buried past 20-30 years at best Never giving it a rest Is this what we're left with Just to get elected... It's not like we have not been warned They're the early birds and we're the worms As they tell us no need to be alarmed They mean us no physical harm Just to get elected... Remember this is the dating game What you see is the well behaved All I've got to say is just you wait There's a big difference between do and say With the elected...

I feel like the presidency is just kind of like being a puppet with a Gepetto behind the curtain pulling the strings, (aka the oligarchy)…Another goodie Mike!:)

Mike, every time I see either one of them I want to hurl. I'm sick of all the crap. We already know who the next pres. is going to be, just put her in there and be done with it. Perhaps in 4 years we'll get a better choice.
