Mr Politician

Mr Politician I saw you on television
You were telling your vision
You promised us heaven and earth
But is heaven and earth yours to give?

I see you everywhere I go
Your face is in every place
You are black, you are white
You are red,brown, and yellow

You are there in every country
You are there in every culture
You are thin, you are fat
You are tall and you are short

You speak many languages
But we do not want your sanguages
Be like Ruth, tell me the truth
Mr Politician,how about the truth?

Mr. Politician, don`t get me wrong
I like your style, you are cool and smooth
But please do not promise
what you know you cannot deliver
