Lyrics Lingo Politico - Christy Moore

Lingo Politico I can't stop digging,
I'm down in a hole I spent me dole on polish coal.
I tired of eatin' toast and beans,
And that man at the door he's here to test me means.
I hate politicians.
I hate politicians and I can't think straight I hate politicians and
The state of the state They're putting all the poor out,
They're putting on the weight They
Better not come around to my front gate.
I got a big Alsatian He's always waiting He doesn't hang about,
He doesn't hesitate Get him Satan,
Get him boy Go get him Satan, there's a good boy I hate politicians.
I hate politicians.
They're going to do this, they're going to do that,
They got the greedy little fingers in the pension pot.
You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours.
Don't come canvasing to my front door Bejaysus they'll talk alright.
They'll talk all day and they'll talk
All night A bla bla, bla bla bla bla bla.
We'll be looking at ways we can better facilitate the formulation of
A coherent strategy designed to lead us into the future with
Confidence in our proven ability to communicate on a meaningful level
In an open and fair transparent society with front line facilities,
Roads and utilities,
Opening up new lines of enquiry about the possibility of em,.
Phasing out the elderly.
Oh yep.
I hate politicians and I don't mind saying.
They got the gall and the ball and the chain and the army and the
Navy and the gravy and the train and they try
To sell us water and it's pissing down with rain.
I'm sorry now the ministers on holidays in Florida.
He left my granny on a trolley in the corridor.
She's out there now bejaysus shes filling out forms
Do you share a bath with your spouse or your partner?
What sort of a question is that for me granny?
I hate politicians.
We'll be doing our best to address
The mess left for us by our predecessors.
Vote for him, vote for me.
Tweedle-Dum and Tweedle-Dee.
I can't stop digging I'm down in a hole.
I spent me dole on polish coal.
I tired of eatin' toast and beans,
That man at the door he's here to test em means.
Don't talk to me about politicians
