They Run With Good Intentions

They Run With Good Intentions By Franklin Price 8/10/2015 They run with good intentions They would like you to believe But they are politicians Known to practice to deceive Spend a lot of money Some of it their very own Want to represent us So we never are alone Make a lot of promises Of the many things they'll do If we vote and we elect them That may last a day or two They see what the establishment Has done through time and age Can't buck what they've accomplished Even though it's all the rage Getting very little done From their place in government Forget who voted for them Believe they were heaven sent The longer there the richer Have to see how this can be Maybe I should run for office Think this is the place for me
