Politic Man

They intrude before the morning,
take good folk without a warning
From safe havens they were given
kindly before being driven
Into places where dark tyrants come
with their weapons to silence
First rescued by the home office
then thrown back to the lions

You lie about what you can do,
promissing everything but truth
Scandals ride as storms ensue
we're left waiting for bad news
As we witness your lack of action
your promises a mere distraction
From power you think you have,
politic man you make us laugh

But you do nothing Mr politic man
I don't listen no more to politic Man
Tired of the words of the politic man oh
Bidding for the rich then for our votes come craw-ling

I'm rebel, the son of god a visiting
and i'm on the level
I tell you i came here to help you to defeat the devil
I'm a rabbi with a masterplan
my word tougher than metal
And you will never take me down because
I'm rebel, the son of god a visiting
and i'm on the level
I tell you i came here to help you to defeat the devil
I'm a rabbi with a masterplan
my word tougher than metal
And you will never take me down because

I am a rebel rebel rebel
I am a rebel rebel rebel
I am a rebel rebel rebel

But you do nothing Mr politic man
I don't listen no more to politic Man
Tired of the words of the politic man oh
Bidding for the rich then for our votes come craw-ling

But you do nothing Mr politic man
I don't listen no more to politic Man
Tired of the words of the politic man
Doing nothing to get the poor out of this jam

Then a rainbow paints a ribbon in the sky
How i long to go to be right by your side
Where the wind is blowing
like a ship caught in the tides
I don't want to die lord, i want to live like i'm alive

So raise your hands up for the poor man
I offer my hand up to the poor man
And the lord always show mercy to a poor man
But if you are rich you won't get into heaven

But you do nothing Mr politic man
I don't listen no more to politic Man
Tired of the words of the politic man oh
Bidding for the rich then for our votes come craw-ling

Ohhh - Ohhh- We get sick of you Mr Politic man
We get sick of you doing nothing Mr Politic man
Ohhh - Ohhh- We get sick of you Mr Politic man
Sick and tired of you doing nothing Politic man
