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
