One, two, three.
Angels sing and clouds cover up the ground.
We live in a political world
where mercy walks the plank.
Life is in me, as death disappears
up the steps to the nearest bank.
We live in a political world
where courage is a thing of the past.
The house of a hundred children
don't want a next day Creole man.
We live in a political world
one you can see and feel.
But there's no one to check, it's all a stack deck.
We all know for sure that's real.
We live in a political world
where cities are lonesome fear.
Little by little you turn in the middle
but you're never sure why you're here.
We live in a political world
under the microscope
you can travel anywhere and hang yourself there
you always got more than a throat.
We live in a political world
turning and thrashing about
as soon as you're awake you're trained to take
what looks like the easy way out.
We live in a political world
where pain's not welcome at all.
Turn away from the door to wander somewhere
or put up against the wall.
We live in a political world
where love don't have any place.
We live in a time to make
to make crimes a crime don't have a place.
