I wish that there weren't politics
Cause everybody seems to get a kick out of
Letting some big old company run their boring little lies
In my country

Have you ever left to see
See all the changes that people can make
Have you ever tried to take a stand
Instead of pledging allegiance to the man

Oh, there's lead in the water and shit in your head
Your lovely representatives want you dead
All the protests for the men who die
You're giving up and saying "Well, at least we tried!"

Oh, I wish that there weren't politics
Cause everybody seems to get a kick out of
Letting some big old company run their boring little lies
In my country

Oh, I wish that there weren't politics
Cause everybody seems to get a kick out of
Letting some big old company run their boring little lies
In my country
