(A lone voice whispers)
Do politicians wear a mask
Some quietly ask
One that smiles so sweetly
While it hides their lies
Linked to promises
Made throughout the weeks
To desperate eager hungry eyes
With hearts beating
Powered by odious guile
And narcissism
Unable to really answer
Any forms of criticism
While living in a secret world of elitism
Which rewards new concepts and policies
Linked to creating division
While toasting capitalism
Can we the paying public
Ever trust all their costly decisions

Presented with a soft voice of kindness
Deals and contracts
Signed and sealed with secret handshakes
In champagne-filled backrooms
That will lead so many chanting in glee
Unable to see
It will lead them dancing to the cemetery
So here's today's task
Can you ever trust a smiling politician
With bright sharp caring eyes
And a smile as wide as a country mile
Who obviously
Wears
A devious mask
