The Lyrics

Congressmen lyrics
(to Rhiannon)

Congressmen tell their tales tonight
And wouldn’t you love to love them?
Promising things they hope you’ll like
Elected, they forget them

All our lives we’ve heard Congressmen
Believed in all their lies
Did you vote ‘cause they promised you Heaven?
Are you hypnotized?

Like prostitutes they way they act
Paid off beneath the table
They do anything to pay it back
However they are able.

All our lives we’ve heard Congressmen
Believed in all their lies
Did you vote ‘cause they promised you Heaven?
Are you hypnotized? Are you hypnotized?

Congressmen

Congressmen tell their tales tonight
And wouldn’t you love to love them?
Promising things they hope you’ll like
Elected, they forget them

All your life you’ve heard Congressmen
Believed in all their lies
Did you vote ‘cause they promised you Heaven?
Are you hypnotized? Are you hypnotized?

Congressmen
Congressmen
Congressmen

Taken by, taken by their lies
Taken by, taken by their lies
Taken by, taken by their lies

We’ve been burned
But we’ve never learned
We’ve been burned
But we’ve never learned.

Now that you mention prostitutes, look at the previous government shutdown (another one supposedly coming in August-September). That meant that they call in and order lots of pizzas, hookers and some cocaine from their favorite DC dealers. Remember 2 years ago when the GOP campaign caravan ran up a $50,000+ tab at a lesbian S+M / B+D club. "Family values" indeed. You get all 5s!

Nicely matched rhymes. "Taken by their lies" pretty much sums up the political process in this country. You've got my vote for parody of the day. Of course, under the Obama administration's election plan, I do get to vote more than once.
