lyrics

I’ve never met that guy
I don’t know what he stands for
I don’t know whether he stands for himself
Or some thing that he learned as a kid

Those are the options here
Except for exceptions
I’d love to say that it’s all black and white
But it’s never the case I’m afraid

I’m not a political animal
And I vote to bury my head in the sand

Don’t oversimplify
’Cause it is complicated
‘Cause what they’re saying is not what they mean
It’s a screen for despicable things

Looks like there’s going to be
A winter election
Vote for the guy on the bike if you like
But remember the last time

Political animal
Political animal
Political animal

I’d love to say that it’s all black and white
But it’s never the case I’m afraid
