    Lyrics

    You always promise a better life
    You always promise a better day
    You say that this is the time. There is a better way

    Ask for my vote, and say there will be change
    Ask for my vote, and say I will be freed
    Tell me the truth - if you can, is this a word or deed?
    Tell me the truth - if you can, is it the change I need?

    You might be lying
    To somebody but it's not to me!
    I think you lie
    To yourself now but you just don't see - yourself!

    Always a promise and you shake my hand
    Always a promise that you can't keep
    Ask me to trust you then demand that I be one of your sheep

    With busy lips you stand up and speak
    With busy lips kiss a baby's cheek
    Repeating words from your mouth like a parrot’s beak
    Repeating words that seem to change from week to week

    You act like a savior l You can't save my soul
    Your bad behavior l Digs you a deeper hole
