Lyrics

The Politician

[Verse 1]

A shake with a smile

To the strike of a dial

No fear when there's nothing to lose

Just a way to be amused

You came up with a way

To disgrace all the ones that wouldn't play your game

Chasing mirrors in a mask

Shelved reflections at the bottom of your sheltered past

And it's all or none, 'cause

It's you or everyone

[Verse 2]

The politician

Such a common condition

No feet, but you got the shoes

Hands that always work in twos

You came up with a name

And a face that you know would fit a picture frame

Turning tides have taught you patience

The stars havе made you their new sеnsation

And it's all for fun, 'cause

You are everyone
