David John Rheault - Election Time Lyrics

I'm on TV, I've been all week
My people tell me that I've got my seat
I think I'm in, I knew I'd win
I swear to God I'm gonna change the world
My wife and kids and the riding I'm in
They backed me up, I owe it all to them
I'm make you proud, I won't sell out
I'll renew your faith in democracy

There's a hero in the House, between the weasel and the mouse
His voice is soft and he really loves his job

I love my work, and all the perks
You got me in, I brush you off like dirt
You stand your ground, and we stand ours
I think we're wrong, but I don't think out loud

Is there a doctor in the House? The weasel killed the tiny mouse
And the hero died as he tried to break up the fight, good night

The hero's gone now, and so's the mouse
Two more weasels have entered the House
I'm sure it comes as no surprise, they want success at any price
And if you sell your soul you'll make out fine
They don't deserve your sympathy, because they're groveling at your feet
Saying, hello old friend, it's election time again
