For people and politicians concerned about polls

::::::::

Stop, Look, Listen To the Polls (Song based on the Gaye/Ross Song, “Stop, Look, Listen--” Downing/Albright version) 

(Lead in: Hmmmmmmmm, Scary-ari-a, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb)

 

You’re forlorn all the time

Why wars always puzzle you

While mothers cry?

You’ve seen the polls go up and down again

Do you love America?

“Or just pretend?”

Just be yourself

Are you afraid?  Then help yourself

It's never too late, too late to Stop, look, listen to the polls

Fear what they’re saying

Stop, look, listen to the polls

Fear what they’re saying

You’re done! Done! Done!

 

[2nd Singer]

Campaign time, you impliedYou’re the ones we really needAnd then you liedBush’s crew would open up, war will end

It’s a shame your backbone’s gone, no impeachment

No impeachment?

Why do we need a new Congress?

Folks show their dismay, and make you

 Stop, look, listen to the polls

Fear what they’re saying

Stop, look, listen to the polls

Fear what they’re saying

You’re done! Done! Done!

 

[Both Singers]

Fallin’, Fallin’, stop and look

(‘cause right now you’re wishing it would stop!)

Go visit all the polls, see how you’re failin’!

(Your office might change in ‘08!)

Stop, look

And look for low poll numbers ‘cause you’re failing

 

Stop and look and get some heart right now

(Stop, look)

(Watch the checkbooks, see who FEMA’s paying)

And, why do what Pelosi dictates?

(Stop, look)

(Why don’t no-bid contracts improve safety?)

Darlin', stop and look

Why do corporations have tax-free havens?

 

Start changing

(Start right now or you’ll get voted out)

Start right now ‘cause the country’s waiting(Ooh, Ooh, can’t you see your numbers flailing?)
