An Autumn Saturday

Driving into town an an autumn Saturday
Passing by all the signs
From politicians who say
"This year you should vote for me
Opposing party is the enemy"
But do they really care
About this failing economy?
I don't have the time to spend
Falling apart on the weekends
They promise me they'll change my life
But what's the score?
Will you believe them anymore?
Because pretty soon, there's nothing left
There's nothing left
Now I'm not the type of guy
Who likes to talk about politics
But it seems election time
Brings out the worst in our candidates
Playing rounds of truth or dare
To hide our state of affairs
And if we could be honest
I think we've all been far too scared
I don't have the time to spend
Falling apart on the weekends
They promise me they'll change my life
But what's the score?
Will you believe them anymore?
Because pretty soon, there's nothing left
There's nothing left
Get your signs off of my street
This has been going on too many weeks
Get your signs off my front lawn
This has been going on way too long
I don't have the time to spend
Falling apart on the weekends
They promise me they'll change my life
But what's the score?
Will you believe them anymore?
Because pretty soon, there's nothing left
There's nothing left
