There's a cruel rank and file during preselection time
and we all hope for the right one to get in .
So they press on regardless and they visit state by state,
with their scruples devoid of the mark of sin .
There's too many pokers in the fire
when they tell you of the great job that nobody's ever done .
So they walk tall into town wearing promises as a crown
and hope that they can somehow overcome.
The long road to being nominated and stand as the chosen delegate for him with the Whitehouse clout .
So you become one of the people or sit on the fence or you're a rebel that can jump up and shout .
Then on the presidency road you have to walk for a while
with your feet in all the muck as you go .
It's a hard yard all right when there are so many people there who end up as rivals running the show .
So if power is what they share but forget how to care,
its no wonder they they've lost their friendly smile .
Cold hearted and stern faced fork tongued and disgraced
are the people on their way to the presidential mile .
