Dysfunction Junction(Lark L Pogue) Politicians are just like flies
Great big mouths and bulging eyes

They talk and talk and say very little
And always refuse to meet in the middle

They walk the halls, back and forth
And get themselves all out of sorts

Over some imagined slight
Maybe a reporter will catch the fight

Then they get what they seem to want
On tv! Themselves to flaunt

And the day will come when a law they will make
And praise themselves, then take a break

Laws for the rich to keep down the poor
You don't have to be a woman to be a whore.

Just pay a lobbyist to buy a vote
Or if you're rich enough, just write a note.

The goal seems to be to make themselves a name
They seem to forget the job is not a game

Global warming and immigration
Healthcare reform and nullification

Legalize pot?-Not in Texas
Just build more prison complexes

Over population? Don't mention it!
The religious coffers wouldn't like it a bit

Tax dollars there, tax dollars here
Whose pet project gets done this year?

Forget the homeless, forget the ill
Just spend the money on Capitol Hill

Who needs water, who needs heat
It doesn't matter, there's someone to beat!

All that counts is the party and the pride
And the country is just along for the ride.

If we get smart, our vote they'll not receive
If they continue this practice to deceive.
