You Are Our Representatives

You are Our Representatives (To any elected government position) By Franklin Price 10/3/2018 You are our representatives We the people run this land The Constitution makes it so What don't you understand? Voted you in and put you there You wear a collar, not a ring To be guided by the people's needs, You're not a despot, queen or king Were sworn in to take the seat To listen to your country's call Not there for just your party But for the people, one and all If money bought the seat you're in And were ensconced there as a bribe You're not there for all the people You're not a member of the tribe If you block what makes good sense to us To make you richer when you're gone We're watching you and what you do In this game you're just a pawn Internet technology Has changed what you can be Can't hide from us the things you do What you do we all can see Doesn't take a month or two Most the time less than an hour We know what you have said and done You need our votes to keep your power Don't say and do those foolish things We see them on our phones as news We pay nothing extra To see your actions and your views Election time is coming All us voters have a say We'll remember what you've said and done When we attend the polls that day
