Don’t believe a thing you hear–
This is an election year.
Candidates are full of promises
And lengthy sentences without comises.
“All men truly free and equal”–
(With the tax-bill as the sequel)
It should curl the straightest hair,
All that rarified hot air.
View with scorn, or point with pride,
Concede no inch to the Other Side.
This is an election year–
Don’t believe a thing you hear!
