Chumbawamba Lyrics

*  Always Tell The Voter What The Voter Wants To Hear

Always tell the voter what the voter wants to hear

Welcome to never mind the ballots
The phone lines are now open 
If youd like to put a question to the candidates the number to ring is 0532779463

You want jobs? I've got jobs
Hospitals? top of my list
Tax cuts and platform shoes
For every small businessman
Just give me your vote
Just give me your vote

Schools, prisons? Of course well build them
Condoms for the american GIs
Nuclear reactors breed like rabbits
Police oppression? you can have it, sir
Just give me your vote
Put your cross in the box

Hello, we've got our first caller 
Your name's Martin, hello Martin 
You disagreed with our stated policy 
Well Martin to tell you the truth I couldn't agree with you more
I think it's outrageous, disgusting
But unlike my colleague on my right, were the party who say what we do, do what we say
You can bank on us martin

Good evening, Shirley 
I'm so glad that you've rung 
The matter is as dear to me as it is to you 
Give me four years and I'll get right down to it 
Because unlike my little balding colleague on my left, we dont make promises we cant keep

You still there, martin?
Good, just one more thing
 
Give us your vote

You want houses? See me afterwards
Want my autograph? See my bodyguard
Pre-election budget handouts
You want a war? No problem
Just give me your vote
