lyrics

Fortune in the jaws of the kids,
Lining up to watch me sweat.
Got to try and get them in,
Got to go and cash that check.

Politician read politician write,
Politician scream politician fight.

Sit around a pyramid song,
Rap about the daily bread.
Name what friends are gone,
Focus on the good instead.

Come into my room, calibrate the use,
Be careful with the city-ice.
Step up to the ledge making eyes with the stress,
Notice who is getting high.
Politician read politician write,
They are as literate as a baby boy.
Politician scream politician fight,
It is as boring as a wet board.
It’s a distraction,
I am attracted to a distraction.

Wonder if I left you out,
Showed you no concern.
I wonder if I let you down,
Which of us would feel hurt?

Waiting for the game to be over in a day,
But I know it isn’t possible.
Waiting in the chamber of regret came a pet name,
For each and every one of her.
Politician read politician write,
They are as literate as a baby boy.
Politician scream politician fight,
It is as boring as a wet board.
It’s a distraction,
I am attracted to a distraction.
