Don’t fall for shark-eyed demagogues.
They feign to care; they steal our share.
The name of game is always same.
Divide to rule; play fear and hate.
Gerrymandering allows politicians to stay in power no matter how bad a job they do for *all* their constituents; those who voted for him/her or those who didn’t. All suffer from divide & conquer.
Pretend to care; they steal our share.
Pretend to be a thing they’re not.
Divide to rule play fear and hate.
Addict your mind to happy lies.
Pretend to be a thing they’re not;
Eventually steal all you’ve got.
Addict your mind to happy lies.

Eventually steal all you’ve got.
You need not be a polyglot.
They make believe and then divide;
Hold out for deals that aren’t unfair.
You need not be a polyglot,
But take a look around this earth.
Hold out for deals that aren’t unfair.
Regardless of your wealth or birth.
