The Republican Politician's Anthem

I am a politician

I've got this well in hand 

Three points up, a week to go

I know just where I stand

I played it right to this point

Just got to keep my cool

Don't say something wrong, been at this so long,

Know all the tricks, get in my licks

I just can't play the fool

I am a politician

Greet you with a smile

Day after day, know what to say

A master course in guile

Don't really have convictions

Though a few times I've been charged

Running around, sound after sound

Word after word, it's all absurd

Just to keep on living large

I am a politician 

Come here just for you

Love me today, whatever I say

Cause all my lies are true

And when I am in office

I'll answer all your prayers

Just not your calls, you're far too small

Don't give a damn, don't have a plan

For I don't really care

I am a politician 

I thank you for your pledge

You give me five, I survive

And now I have the edge

Now we're in the homestretch

And soon we'll raise a glass

Drink after drink, wink after wink

Its part of the show, now I have to go

Still a few votes to amass

I am a politician

I've got this well in hand 

Three points up, a week to go

I know just where I stand

I played it right to this point

Just got to keep my cool

Don't say something wrong, been at this so long,

Know all the tricks, get in my licks

I just can't play the fool
