Puppeteers

The tricks of politics,
Is to pretend religion has nothing to do with it.
Pretend there is a deep caring!
And a race without rascism 'is' involved.
The freedom to vote will solve all problems!

Whether you are a jackass...
Or a thought provoking elephant.
None of this is relevent,
To the people represented.
This is known!
And these election games are prone
To produce the best BS money can buy!
Since it's the guys behind the scenes...
Pumping in the bucks and pulling all the strings!
And we don't have a clue as to who these puppeteers are.
But...
We do know who their choices are,
To keep us thoroughly distracted and entertained!
