98 Mute Election Year Lyrics

Election Year Lyrics

Election time time for red white and blue baby baby kissing and photo
opportunities 
Meet your candidate Ivy league white trash prim and proper nice teeth for the
t.v.  
Here to bring you to the promised land with a porcelain smile and empty
promises  
Sure he`ll take your campaign contributions but you can bet he`ll never put
your money where is mouth is 
Did you go out and vote today?  
Do you really think it made a change?   
How did you feel when you walked away?  
Like everything will be the same?  
One thing is evident one thing is clear  
Nothing gets done in an election year  
Now let`s play watch your candidate kiss as* to the corporate brass 
¡®cause he needs the cold hard cash  
To finance his big shot at the big dance his big chance to be a real big man  
Campaign platforms bought and sold like futures on the New York stock exchange 

A firesale on your future your life is their game wouldn`t you like to play 
Here we go congress one progress zero  
You think your leaders are thinking about reform  
They`d sooner sit and watch our cities burn like Nero  
Makes you wonder what the f**k you`re voting for  
For a change vote who the f**k are you kidding me 
What we need is some good old fashioned anarchy  
You bring the torch and I`ll bring the kerosene  
We`ll strike a match and burn this f**ker down
