So far you are good at pollution And other pocket lining resolutions. You look at graft as a noble institution While you work to undo the constitution. No matter, it is our geese that are cooked As long as you have pricey vacations booked Don’t miss any vote-buyer’s finger crooked As long as the very richest fish are hooked You quickly learn to so slickly lie While looking people in the eye We’d be better if you said goodbye But you don’t so we just sit and cry. And as you ruin all of our credit You take our Social Security and bet it And it’s our fault because we let it And then when you steal it, we forget it But your fingerprints on the knife in the back Proves to everyone you are all off of the track Everybody is busy giving you nothing but slack Like all of us are some kind of lobbyist hack It is we who have to watchdog your legislation We have to stop this lethal voter hesitation The moment the crooks come up for elimination We must vote them out or there is no restoration This free ticket to rob us can’t last forever. Someday the people will all band together And you will find out quickly whether America is wise enough to pull that lever.

So far you are good at pollution And other pocket lining resolutions. You look at graft as a noble institution While you work to undo the constitution. No matter, it is our geese that are cooked As long as you have pricey vacations booked Don’t miss any vote-buyer’s finger crooked As long as the very richest fish are hooked You quickly learn to so slickly lie While looking people in the eye We’d be better if you said goodbye But you don’t so we just sit and cry. And as you ruin all of our credit You take our Social Security and bet it And it’s our fault because we let it And then when you steal it, we forget it But your fingerprints on the knife in the back Proves to everyone you are all off of the track Everybody is busy giving you nothing but slack Like all of us are some kind of lobbyist hack It is we who have to watchdog your legislation We have to stop this lethal voter hesitation The moment the crooks come up for elimination We must vote them out or there is no restoration This free ticket to rob us can’t last forever. Someday the people will all band together And you will find out quickly whether America is wise enough to pull that lever.
