Lyrics
- THE DIRTY TRICKS DEPARTMENT IS WORKING OVERTIME
- TRYING TO STOP THE CANDIDATE FROM GETTING IN THIS TIME
- THE WHEELS ARE NOW IN MOTION, ALL THE TRAPS ARE SET
- UNDER THIS COMMOTION, WILL HE WALK INTO THIS MESS?
- THE STATE’S INTOXICATED – THEY’RE AT THE STARTING GATE
- HE MAY NEVER MAKE IT TO THE PLANNED T.V. DEBATE
- HE CAN’T FIGHT OFF THE BIG BUCKS OF THE OLD BRIGADE
- HE’S GOTTA WATCH HIS STEP IN THIS
- SMEAR CAMPAIGN
- THEY CALLED A SNAP ELECTION IN THE SUMMER HEAT
- THIS TOWN IS REELING BACKWARDS
- LIKE A DRUNK MAN ON THE STREET
- FEED THOSE LIES
- BEND THOSE MINDS AT ANY PRICE
- FOUL OR FAIR
- AS LONG AS HE’S NOT THERE
- ELECTION TIME
- DON’T BELIEVE THE PAPERS, IT’S NOT ANYBODY’S RACE
- HE’S NOT A RANK BEGINNER, IT’S NOT A CHILDREN’S GAME
- HE MAY GET THE NOMINATION, IF HE BREAKS THOUGH THE CHAIN
- OR THEY’LL SHOOT HIM DOWN ON MAIN STREET IN THIS
- SMEAR CAMPAIGN
- JUST WATCH THE PARTY FAITHFUL FUEL THE DREAM MACHINE
- THEY’VE FUDGED UP ALL THE ISSUES
- EAT THAT SCANDAL SHEET
- THE DIRTY TRICKS DEPARTMENT IS NEARLY HALF INSANE
- TRYING TO STOP THE CANDIDATE WITH A
- SMEAR CAMPAIGN
