Circus is in town

Tell A Friend

Democracy at work

Choose some lame ass jerk

Rule out anyone progressive

Stick to the regressive

Limit the debate

To the millionaire candidates

Let the people rejoice

In the corporations’ choice

Weed the oddballs and idealists out

They haven’t got the clout

Don’t publicize their ideas

Make them look like queers

Only room for two parties

The Laurels or the Hardys

The candidates compete

Avoiding the concrete

Not obligated to the truth

Their words are lawsuit proof

They all voted for the patriot act

That really is a fact

Listen to the debate

These lawyers hold your fate

Democracy at work

Choose your style in jerk
