Politics has gotten ugly lately, I'm afraid.
Bickering and slandering and accusations made.
President Obama's under pressure to perform.
Don't see how he can without Congressional reform.

Just today they'll take a vote that he's already lost.
Tea Party adherents claim we can't afford the cost.
Never mind the fact that our economy is stalled.
The response from Congress? The Republicans stonewalled.

Democrats aren't all on-board... They'll nit and then they'll pick.
Atmosphere is toxic and it's made the country sick.
I am so disgusted with them all. I'm not alone.
Their approval rating is the lowest ever known.

No more will I tippy toe around it; they've been bought.
Money plays a larger part in Congress then it ought.
Saying it's philosophy will just excuse so much.
Clearly all our Representatives are out of touch.

Do the People's Business damn it! That's why you're all there.
Work it out, for goodness sake and try to keep it fair.
Spare the philosophical debates and get to work.
(And someone put a muzzle on McConnell. He's a jerk.)
