Hey Mr. Politics!
How come you don't care of the homeless?
Hey Mr. Politics!
You keep them far from your place,
so you don't sleep restless
Hey Mr. Fiddlesticks!
No railway traffic, across your own street
Hey Mr. Fiddlesticks!
How many dirty junkies do you ever meet?
Not in my backyard
That's how you play cards
Not in my backyard
Don't sell me your facade
Not in my backyard
Game over, wrong card
Hey Mr. Politics!
You live far away from the red light district
Hey Mr. Politics!
Your neighbourhood is never
a stake in a conflict
Hey Mr. Fiddlesticks!
We are to ones who elected you
Hey Mr. Fiddlesticks!
Did you forget who pulled you through?
Een nummer over politici die niet nakomen wat ze beloven tijdens hun verkiezingscampagnes. Sterker nog; politici die allerlei impopulaire maatregelen nemen. Op zich begrijpelijk dat ze dat moeten (soms) maar wel vreemd dat een nieuw vluchtelingenkamp of treinverbinding nooit in hun eigen woonbuurt komt te liggen.
