On a sinking boat

So they think they are so tight
To talk and preach all night
Telling us what to think
With out a single blink

Oh they are the best thing since sliced bread
Yet I hear they bang prostitutes in bed
Often full of lies
Living in a disguise

Do they think they are better than me?
Some of these politicians are high on ecstasy
Saying please vote for my cause
So I can do what ever the hell I want and pass all my laws

Be against divorce but have a lover in bed?
What is going on in their head?
They want to save money but all they do is spend
Then they raise taxes in the end

So obviously they love to gamble and roll the dice
With our tax paying money which isn't exactly wise or nice
Hmm I wonder if they use it on vacations?
As they visit and party in different nations

Why do people run for a political seat?
Has to be more than just because it is neat
The power or maybe they are nice after all?
Then I hear they got caught going to a strip club last fall

Who am I to believe?
When they have a degree in how to deceive
Where is honesty, integrity and righteousness?
This is pure sadness
