I walk down to the corner just to hop the bus this morning Cause I had to start my day off before all the sun got shinning All the people up inside there some of them still eating breakfast Cause they had to hustle early got push to make their pay check Because the crazy cost of living is never forgivin no family For getting behind on payments on the colour TV While I'm standing and riding my mind starts to drift and wander Why I've got to check my checkbook if I need to see a doctor I look out the window with some 45 foot billboard of a smiling politician Begging me for a donation Brother please don't you see who your talking too You say that your going to make me happy with all the tricks you do With all your promises, promises, promises that you make That's how you make your living putting peoples lives at stake With all your promises, promises, promises that you make If your taking us for granted it will be your last mistake (chorus) You keep on runnin' runnin' runnin' runnin' runnin' but you can't run no faster as us You keep on runnin' runnin' runnin' runnin' runnin' but you can't run as fast as this bus Well the bus rolls in to another neighbourhood With some shinny happy people all their houses looking good You see street sweepers sweeping up the leaves from the trees SongtexteYou see no broken bottles and see no broken dreams And the same politician that I saw here before Is making speeches about me, evil people that live next door Say lock them up one time, two times, three times for life See the best is one of them is the one kept out of sight So cast your vote for me you might have seen me on TV Taking education funds and giving them to police You see bustin' a man I know for less than an ounce Dropping million dollar bombs and on countries I can't pronounce (chorus) Aus Songtexte Mania
