Everything fits nicely into place

Higher powers take the lead

Middleman sit, pondering his worth

One great scheme to stem (the) objective urge

Decision-making

And power playing

One up-manship

Show of hands

To clasp the myth

Vote in a new scourge

Everything fits nicely into place

Higher powers take the lead

Issues are decided before we've a chance to think

And moral high ground wins the day again

Decision-making

And power playing

Principles spurned

Show of hands

To clasp the myth

Favors for my friends

It's a constitutional hell

Where they pontificate and yell

Where etiquette outplays integrity

It's a constitutional hell

Everything fits nicely into place

Higher powers take the lead

Sleeping giants show their real worth

I'll sum up on all the good you've done this earth...

...Nothing
