Politics are full of tricks
And all of it just makes me sick
Everyone yells at each other
But no one seems to think
Politicians are rhetoricians
Everyone is superstitious
Find a station for the news
Where there's impartial propositions
It's a nationwide division
Caused by television
A major opposition
That no one can go fixin'
Went from red, white, and blue
To now you're red or blue
And you can only do it if your party tells you to
Sheep to a herd
Feathers to a bird
I just believe it 'cause it's all I overheard
Might not be right
But I know you're wrong
It's all a game and we're just the pawns
It's a nationwide division
Caused by television
A major opposition
That no one can go fixin'
Went from red, white, and blue
To now you're red or blue
And you can only do it if your party tells you to
Why should I vote?
Why should I care?
When all you're hearing from is for the billionaires
You can mail it out
If you don't mail it in
But, who's to blame if you don't care who wins?
It's a nationwide division
Caused by television
A major opposition
That no one can go fixin'
Went from red, white, and blue
To now you're red or blue
And you can only do it if your party tells you to
Is this what our Fathers imagined
When they set that flag up high?
When so much that you hear
Is all just full of lies
What happened to
One nation, under God, indivisible?
