Hey Mr. Politics!

How come you don't care of the homeless?

Hey Mr. Politics!

You keep them far from your place,

so you don't sleep restless

Hey Mr. Fiddlesticks!

No railway traffic, across your own street

Hey Mr. Fiddlesticks!

How many dirty junkies do you ever meet?

Not in my backyard

That's how you play cards

Not in my backyard

Don't sell me your facade

Not in my backyard

Game over, wrong card

Hey Mr. Politics!

You live far away from the red light district

Hey Mr. Politics!

Your neighbourhood is never

a stake in a conflict

Hey Mr. Fiddlesticks!

We are to ones who elected you

Hey Mr. Fiddlesticks!

Did you forget who pulled you through?

Een nummer over politici die niet nakomen wat ze beloven tijdens hun verkiezingscampagnes. Sterker nog; politici die allerlei impopulaire maatregelen nemen. Op zich begrijpelijk dat ze dat moeten (soms) maar wel vreemd dat een nieuw vluchtelingenkamp of treinverbinding nooit in hun eigen woonbuurt komt te liggen.
