Silver tongues drip poison slow
Promises made of ash and glow
Shake their hands feel the slime
Every clock ticks their time
Behind the curtain shadows creep
While we scream while we sleep
Snake oil politicians grin wide
Selling lies selling lies selling lies
Their empires built on broken cries
We won't bow we won't hide
Empty suits with hollowed eyes
Banners wave but truth still dies
Clutching power like it's gold
Every word rehearsed and cold
Underneath their shiny masks
Rotten teeth and hidden tasks
Snake oil politicians grin wide
Selling lies selling lies selling lies
Their empires built on broken cries
We won't bow we won't hide
