The Politician

You patronize, you criticize, you colonize, you compromise You plagiarize, you hypnotize, you privatize, you nationalize Manipulate the press, bend them to your will Twist the truth in front of a nation standing still Heating up your fear, feasting on your guilt Thinking things will change in a country that's been built On people like you who are in it for themselves Who couldn't give a fuck

I'd rather have a fool than a coward and a liar Who's had more points of view than nine misfired Trying to tell my friends about the phony that you are For you there's no such thing as taking it too far

I'm gonna jump all the way from the top of the mountain Keep telling me the lies that I'm doubting Fuck The Politician! It's every life I'm counting

People dying all alone, no chance to say goodbye Whilst you do what you want, as if rules don't apply To people like you who always know what's best Wear a fucking mask to hide your contempt For the ordinary man, the working class fool Boarding up his business, closing down the school Whilst the bankers get rich You post inside the proletariat that you took along for the ride You haven't missed a paycheck since March We're not in this together, this is your part You think you'll be gone when we clean up this mess Honestly, I don't know how you cope with the stress

I'm gonna jump all the way from the top of the mountain Keep telling me the lies that I'm doubting Fuck The Politician! It's every life I'm counting

Every time I feel I might break down and cry I try to remember that there's still time To drink myself to death To wear out my lungs with cigarettes and drugs Oh to be young

Just imagine people thinking that you're rich When the fact is there's no pot to piss in For a desperate loser, a bitter narcissist This rant at politicians is just the latest twist Of embarrassment that makes you wanna curl up and die Care if you think you're a loser Just be grateful you're not Tom Cridland

I'm gonna jump all the way from the top of the mountain Keep telling me the lies that I'm doubting Fuck The Politician! It's every life I'm counting

Cause I'm gonna jump all the way from the top of the mountain Keep telling me the lies that I'm doubting Fuck The Politician! It's every life I'm counting

Every single person I've met thinks I'm a joke And it's all I've been Everybody's trouble
