He left school

at twenty-two

Such a vital man

had this big plan

He saw-the-land-guided by fools,

to-change-he needed tools

To get the chance

and to break the fence

He had to go

and join the political show

It-would-take-just a few years,

soon-you-would hear them cheer

Now the man

is on the air

Smart tie and suit

and dark grey hair

Once-he-thout-he'd change the ways,

like-in-our schooldays

to get up there

be number one

Lot's of compromising

he had done

He'll-tell-you-he does all he can,

but-lost-contact with his fellowman

He had to go,

and join the political show

Have you seen

the man I mean

In the big black car

he's gone way to far

Him-and-me-we shared the ideal,

now-lose-at his pathetic appeal

I still feel the need

to end all the greed

And I still fight my fights

for equal rights

Don't-ask-him-where he had to go,

He's lost himself in the political show
