Constitutional Hell

Everything fits nicely into place Higher powers take the lead Middleman sits pondering his worth One great scheme to stem (the) objective urge Decision-making And power playing One-upmanship Show of hands To clasp the myth Vote in a new scourge Everything fits nicely into place Higher powers take the lead Issues are decided before we've chance to think And moral high ground wins the day again Decision-making And power playing Principles spurned Show of hands To clasp the myth Favors for my friends It's a constitutional hell Where they pontificate and yell Where etiquette outplays integrity It's a constitutional hell It's a constitutional hell Where mere pennies are thrown to the plebs Expenditure on hollow conjecture It's a constitutional hell Everything fits nicely into place Higher powers take the lead Sleeping giants show their real worth I'll sum up on all the good you've done this earth Nothing! Nothing!
