Democracy is a fragile thing
We trusted folks with the light it brings
They forsake their oath for their own desires
Betrayed us all, those stinkin’ liars

Chorus
They’ll fall hard, those rotten stinkin’ liars
They’ll go down, down, down
As the truth rises higher
And we’ll vote them out
Those stinkin’ liars, those stinkin’ liars

Interlude (kazoos optional)

Chorus
They’ll fall hard, those rotten stinkin’ liars
They’ll go down, down, down
As the truth rises higher
And we’ll vote them out
Those stinkin’ liars, those stinkin’ liars

Our rights in shreds. It’s plain to see
Gonna take us all. And strong we’ll be
Stop the hate. Join hand in hand
For the good of all across this land

Chorus (x2)
They’ll fall hard, those rotten stinkin’ liars
They’ll go down, down, down
As the truth rises higher
And we’ll vote them out
Those stinkin’ liars, those stinkin’ liars
