Electioneering Lyrics

[00:34.27] I will stop, I will stop at nothing
[00:44.31]
[00:46.55] Say the right things when electioneering
[00:55.76] Trust I can rely on your vote
[01:00.29]
[01:03.70] When I go forwards you go backwards
[01:09.77] And somewhere we will meet
[01:16.83] When I go forwards you go backwards
[01:22.10] And somewhere we will meet
[01:27.27] Ha ha ha
[01:30.09]
[01:42.05] Riot shields, voodoo economics
[01:51.35]
[01:54.42] It's just business, cattle prods and the IMF
[02:03.40] Trust I can rely on your vote
[02:11.35] When I go forwards you go backwards
[02:17.21] And somewhere we will meet
[02:24.57] When I go forwards you go backwards
[02:29.62] And somewhere we will meet
[03:08.38]
