Who can We Trust?
By megaprime81
I'm going to attempt to make this poem as short as possible:
You can't trust the President, Congress, the Pope, or people on the street
that are selling you dope. You can't trust any politician because they'd
like to have sex with your teenage daughter. When we're voting it's like
we're being lead to our slaughter. Up all night or sleep all day, whatever
we do, it won't go away. To fix this problem, we have to cut it off at
the root.
Starting all over, kicking out the suits. But don't bring violence by gun
or knife, or else they'll lock you up and take away your life. No matter
who's in charge, seems they're always doing wrong. And if you stand against
it, they'll probably ban your song.

I started small, local politics, my call. It disproportionally attracts, the haters and Hacks. 'Cause a silver tongue is all you need, to hide the spoils of your greed. My life was threatened; I was really a-'frettin'. Too few good people participate, 'cause their hopes soon deflate. But when they jump in, we must help them win. Then watch their backs, to ward off the quacks. You might think me a downer, a bad, chronic frowner. But truth be told, good hopes I uphold. My wife and I have sunny dispositions; we need good people in all those positions. Be brave; don't cave.

Yeah. Especially since Marion Barry got re-elected by the people of Washington after it was discovered he was smoking crack.
