The Politicians We Deserve

Many complain they do lack in ideas and in verve But the politicians we vote into Parliament are the politicians we deserve Politicians are not as clever as many make them out to be Any of the Country's most intelligent people are not in Parliament though some with this may not agree In the Chambers of Parliament humility is dead The egos of most politicians barely fit in their head We only vote for those best at their own praises to sing Arrogance and egotism nowadays seem the in thing It seems like Parliament House is a safe haven for conceit In their broken promises they sow the seeds of deceit They live by nepotism and in their ways they are so small And for the poor and homeless of towns and cities they do nothing at all That we deserve the politicians we get happens for to be true It is life's way of giving us what we are due.
