POLITICS

His side, her side

 

Is this right?

 

My side, your side

 

Fight to fight?

 

 

 

Left side, right side

 

Stand for one, then stand for all

 

Red tide blue tide

 

Could this really ease the fall?

 

 

 

 

 

He said, she said

 

Damn the other!

 

You’re up, he’s dead

 

Condemn your brother

 

 

 

They agree, we agree

 

That’s enough

 

I see if you can’t see

 

We called his bluff

 

 

 

Hoist him up, no throw him out

 

In 4 years, sure you’ll see

 

Straight down is the safest route

 

Consistency’s the key

 

 

 

L or C?

 

Is there a line?

 

Or R or D?

 

You’ll pay the fine

 

 

 

For months, for years

 

Resigned or fired

 

Just merge your fears

 

Elected, hired

 

 

 

There’s morals, there’s rights

 

No time for fair

 

Come join the fights

 

There’s room? But where…?
