Live at Uncommon Ground - 25 Sept 2009 - "Politician"

Jay Mathes performing at Uncommon Ground, Wrigleyville, in Chicago, IL on 25 September 2009.

Polician

We're all politicians
We've got hidden motives
When will we know better
We're all like the next one

I've tried my best to look like I try
And I wonder
If I swing left, will I slip aright, upright?

Humble are you better than we are
Does your blood flow through your heart
If you bleed does it bleed bright red
Have you wished upon a star

We're all Wall Street collars
We've got swollen egos
When will we distrust ourselves
We're all like the next one

I've tried my best to look like I try
And I wonder
If I swing left, will I slip aright, upright?

Humble are you better than we are
Does your blood flow through your heart
If you bleed does it bleed bright red
Have you wished upon a star

Spare ten thousand voices
Share the limousine
Repair these wicked choices
Declare the guilty free

Humble are you better than we are?
