The Honest Politician
An 'honest' politician
 Spends hours combing his hair,
 Applying his television make up,
 And he adjusts his tie.
 
 He eats expensive meals,
 Everything on silver platters
 Living an entire lifetime
 Not knowing how to struggle.
 
 This 'honest' politician
 Says he understands
 He understands our pain
 So he'll raise our taxes.
 
 He is a man so many admire
 And will do anything to win
 It's all just a game
 And he has to come in first.
 
 This 'honest' politician
 Will soon take the stage
 Putting on a show
 Let's give him a hand.
 
 He clears his throat
 And lets the lies flow 
 He promises peace
 And he promises change.
 
 But as this 'honest' politician
 Gives his closing words
 I shake my head 
 And cannot help but think-
 
 Wow,
 I'm proud to be an American.
