Album: Riley Wants His Life Back - Perfect Politician

Yes means no, no means maybe
when you're shakin hands and kissin babies
I want your vote I'm a man on a mission
I'm the perfect politician

I'm the man for you this election
Your one and only decent selection
I'm the man with the vision and boundless ambition
I'm the perfect politician

BR If you and I think the same
you could help out with my campaign
You'll find me generous with my favours
for my friends and my neighbours

Year after year while taxes soar
I keep my business all off-shore
My ratings are good. I have my own statistician
I'm the perfect politician

-------------------------- solos V - Br - V -------------------------

BR I keep cool under pressure
I never flinch or twitch
while I take from the poor
to give to the rich

With cuts to health care and education
I'm gonna make this a better nation
Once I'm in I don't need your permission
I'm the perfect politician

So while you're working day after day
I'm voting myself a great big raise
Then I take six months for golfin and fishin
I'm the perfect politician

I'm a clever tactician...
I slander the opposition..
I'm this year's edition
of the Perfect Politician
