I Should Run for Office
I should run for office
I’ve heard it’s a good gig
You can lie, and cheat, and steal
Promise, then renege
During the campaign
I’ll pretend to be a saint
While I tarnish my opponent
Without any restraint
Once behind the desk
With a strong majority
I’ll take back everything I said
Cause I’m the new authority
Standing in the house
To pass new legislation
To assist all of the members
Of the Chevron Corporation
Embezzle from the people
It’s the new 401K
Takin’ bribes behind closed doors
It’s just another day
If rumours start to stir
And things don’t go to plan
Just repeat this after me
I did not sleep with that woman
I’ll become best friends
With the oil companies
Tax cuts for the wealthy
Forget the families
By using point eight font
In this omnibus bill
I can edit all the policies
On Parliament hill
Slash funding in half
For the environment
Global warming’s a myth
It don’t need a cent
I might make people mad
I might get some flack
But I’m better than some
At least I don’t smoke crack
