We All Sound The Same

The candidates come and the candidates go
And we all sound the same
I’m Eeenie, I’m Meenie, I’m Minie, I’m Mo
And we all sound the same
We’re having another election this year
We’re hiring the halls and we’re pouring the beer
We’ll tell you precisely what you long to hear
And we all sound the same
We’re there every time you turn on your TV
And we all sound the same
Help stop unemployment, try voting for me!
Yes, we all sound the same
We’re kissing the babies and shaking the hands
We’re blowing balloons and we’re leading the bands
We’re hoping that nobody here understands
That we all sound the same
We’ll fearlessly take our positions when we know how you feel
We’ve taken the polls, and we know it’s the safe thing to do
We’ve studied the trends for the feelings that we’re allowed to feel
We’ll be out there leading, about two or three steps behind you — that’s off of
the record
Mr. Chairman, my close friend, Mr. Lincoln, has a …
Yes we all sound the same
Introducing our new economic plan for the future of America…
And we all sound the same
And I have come before this august gathering to promise you that if I am
elected, I will further discover misbeliefs
in institution, constitution, and prosperity…
And we all sound the same
We’ll fearlessly take our positions when we know how you feel (all sound the
same)
We’ve taken our polls, and we know it’s the safe thing to do (all sound the
same)
We’ve studied the trends for the feelings that we’re allowed to feel (all sound
the same)
We’ll be out there leading, about two or three steps behind you — that’s off of
the record
We’re fast on our feet when the ball’s in our court
And we all sound the same
We’re earnestly hoping your memories are short
And we all sound the same
We’ve mastered the art of rhetorical curve
We’ve practiced sincerity, screwed up our nerve
We’re praying we don’t get what we all deserve
And we all sound the same
We’re praying we don’t get what we all deserve
And we all sound the same
