Politician Lyrics - Grand Funk Railroad

Mr. Politician, please don't deceive us 

Mr. Politician, you're there to relieve us 

Just how can we tell, mister 

When to believe in you 

Oh, won't you tell me, oh, who we're lookin' out for? 

Mr. Politician could be perfect but, people, it's doubtful 

We want a leader who'll fight for the people 

We want somebody to take us to the steeple 

We'd like to point him out to you people 

But don't look now 

Mr. Politician, please don't deceive us 

Mr. Politician, you're there to relieve us 

Just how can we tell, mister 

When to believe in you 

We want a leader for the people 

We want him honest, not deceitful 

We want an angel in the public eye 

And we won't give it up, Lord, until we die 

Mr. Politician, please don't deceive us 

Mr. Politician, you're there to relieve us 

Just how can we tell, mister 

When to believe in you
