Sheep

Every four to eight years , they all bark change.. But all I see , is the Oval Office chairs rearranged.. Reform seems to be a word, they speak in their sleep. And all we are to do, is follow as sheep.. A campaign of lies, will win your vote. now he's elected, and you are the goat.. For the middle class, it will be easy street. A road paved in gold, for only one percent to reap.. If you really want a voice, I do have a plan. Give all the house seats, to the working man.. A life time job, this was not meant to be. Why should rich people know, what is best for me ..
