Part Of Him Lyrics - English Oceans - Drive By Truckers

He was elected, wingnut raised and corn fed 

Teabags dragging on the chamber floor 

He did what he had to do to get southern boys to vote for you 

To grease the wheels to get you in the door 

But he must of said some things 

That made them think that he was strange 

And made them wonder if he was one of them 

They had to call him in but he wouldn't make amends 

So they had to reel the poor boy in 

He was an absolute piece of shit to tell the truth 

But he never told the truth to me 

He never told the truth to you don't think he ever set out to 

He was indifferent to honesty 

His positions were pre-ordained to help conceal his vast disdain 

For anything that lessened his appeal 

His integrity was phoning in, totally Nixonian 

Honing in the art of making deals 

He was a piece of work, more or less a total jerk 

His own mama called him an SOB 

He never worked an honest day, just kissed up to a better way 

To sell the cow you could get for free 

When he got out of line, they snatched him up from behind 

And put him in a box with fancy trim 

Rolled him out for all to see his rendezvous with destiny 

Now someone else will play the part of him 

Someone else will play the part of him 

Someone else will play the part of him 

Someone else will play the part of him 

Someone else will play the part of him
