During this past election cycle I was taking and american politics class and reading about the different ploys and tricks politicians used to employ in order to get votes. I began to realize that, while they try and do it more subtly, politicians today do it just as often and are just as corrupt.

Are you ready for a revolution?
Are you read to set all the flags ablaze?
You hear them saying that they’ve got solutions
Can’t feel that everything’s about to change?

So get ready for a revolution
Just forget that it has all been said before
They promise everything and give you nothing
And you’re all too blind to know the score

Are you outta your mind?
Are you outta your head?
Can’t you tell that there’s no one listening?

Then you’re surprised to find
And you’re surprised to hear
When you learn the truth that no one’s listening
Then you hear someone say they care

Are you ready for my revolution?
Are you ready to watch me change the whole world?
With me you can achieve absolution
Be sure to vote for me election time

I can cure cancer and end world hunger
Make you lose weight without any exercise
I’ll give you all that your heart desires
Vote for me once and then vote some more

Are you outta your mind?
Are you outta your head?
Can’t you tell that there’s no one listening?

Then you’re surprised to find
And you’re surprised to hear
When you learn the truth that no one’s listening
So you just stop to care at all

Vote for me
No
