Lyrics:
Never Trust A Politician

NEVER TRUST A POLITICIAN

VERSE 1
Bright day would turn to night
Bright day would turn to night
If ever I saw a politician
That knew wrong from right

CHORUS/REFRAIN
Put your trust in your fellow man
Never in the politician

VERSE 2
Tax all my wages
Says he'll help me when I need
When I fall on hard times
It's nowhere to be seen

CHORUS/REFRAIN

VERSE 3
Hungry for power
Wants to be in charge
Days in the governor's house
Nights living large

CHORUS/REFRAIN

VERSE 4
Election time is near
He'll be at your grocery store
At your work and at your church
Where he's never been before

CHORUS/REFRAIN

VERSE 5
When you go to vote
I say without a doubt
Right in your neighbors name
Put the politicians out
