Political Enemies

The enemies of your enemies In politics are your political friends The friends of your enemies Are definitely not your friends Politics get dirtier everyday These days, lots of people are being hurt Politics get nastier everyday Mad or crazy politicians have no heart They have respect for nobody And are concerned solely about money Power and privilege. They will kill to win And they will maim to be elected and reelected Some politicians don't have thick skin They're ready to participate in illegal raid Just so they can win at any possible cost The friends of your enemies need not post Nothing because they avenge, and backstab They cannot move forward but want to go back To their old ways of theft, cheat and corruption Be protective of the ballots at the next election.
