As far as I know, the "Politics of Lonely" does not exist. But keep in mind The Weakerthans are from Canada...if that means anything...And the lyrics are in "essay" format because that is how they are in the booklet that comes with the cd. And since John K. Samson feels they should be written that way, it is probably best. I like that this song is the second in what seems to be a song trilogy...or something like that. Begining with (Manifest) and ending sadly with (Past-Due). All very touching songs, best when listened to one after another.
