The people are bribed with
their own tax money
By politicians that are
friendly, and “ways” that are “sunny”
Vote for me and my party,
they smile and declare
The sound of their babbling
B.S. is noisy, but, they care
They all support abortion,
the killing of the pre-born child
Anybody proposing a law on
this atrocity drives them wild
Their respect for innocent
human life, is absolutely nil
They will say and do anything
for the “right to choose to kill”
They are choosing forward
together in the onward direction
You will find out what they
mean if they win re-election
They are in it for you, so
that you can get ahead
They are saving your world, some
of these political retreads
Their aim is a seat in the
big house of power and plenty
And if they achieve it, they
will have a brand new identity
Some will go by the title, “right
honourable” and “honourable”
They will be so happy, while
you could be very miserable
It will now be open season on
the voters for placing an X
They will now be the
politicians’ serfs and taxing subjects
All the promises made in the
happy electioneering days
Will now be in the dustbin of
history: now it is time to pay
More taxes as usual will be
levied on the masses once again
“We must reduce the deficit”
the politicians will exclaim
“Once that is done there will
be money to help you all
But, you will have to elect
us again, to reduce the shortfall”
Once in the House they might
be voting themselves a raise
A much needed increase for
their work in the political marketplace
Their pensions will get a
boost and their expenses and allowances too
Our tax dollars will be paying
for it, because that’s what our taxes do
They know the people are all “happy
to pay” for their “expertise”
After all, the serfs voted
for them, to do as they please
They will thank everybody for
their trust and giving them victory
Do the people realize, that
election promises, are just, election bribery?
