Generate meaning
1
I'm so tired of these mortal men
2
With their hands on their wallets and their hearts full of sin
3
Scared of their enemies, scared of their friends
4
And always running for re-election
5
So come to D.C. if it be thy will
6
Because we've never had a savior on Capitol Hill
7
You can always trust the devil or a politician
8
To be the devil or a politician
9
But beyond that, friends, you'd best beware
10
"หCause at the Pentagon bar, they're an inseparable pair
11
And as long as the lobbyists are paying their bills
12
We'll never have a savior on Capitol Hill
13
All of our problems gonna disappear
14
When we can whisper right in that President's ear
15
He could walk right across the reflection pool
16
In his combat boots and ten thousand dollar suit
17
You can render unto Caesar everything that's his
18
You can trust in his power to come to your defense
19
It's the way of the world, the way of the gun
20
It's the trading of an evil for a lesser one
21
So don't hold your breath or your vote until
22
You think you've finally found a savior up on Capitol Hill
