Politics

(앨범: O Zambezi - 1978)

Oh the body politic, money and lust
See it on my TV, oh my distrust
One man's sweat earns another man's car
Who wants to work for a third rate Czar

Watch me howl down the corridors of power
What keeps me going hour after hour

Politics, politics
Bring on the dirty tricks
Just like Tricky Dick
Politics, politics
Vote for me to reach the top
Vote for me, dictator of pop

What you see you can't have, or maybe you can
Never know until you try how much can you stand

I don't know where I'm going, it's not where I've been
If my hand gets caught in the till, is it a cardinal sin

Politics, politics
Bring on the dirty tricks
Just like Tricky Dick
Politics, politics
Vote for me to reach the top
Vote for me, dictator of pop

Well the politics of money and the politics of sex
Both conspired to make me a physical wreck
Give Ireland to the Irish, Australia to me
Tell the girls I'm in the running and waiting for the lowdown

Watch me howl down the corridors of power
What keeps me going hour after hour

Politics, politics
Bring on the dirty tricks
Just like Tricky Dick
Politics, politics
Vote for me to reach the top
Vote for me, dictator
Vote for me to reach the top
Vote for me, dictator
Vote for me to reach the top
Vote for me, dictator of pop
