MONEY CAN BUY THE VOTES
(To tune of “Money Can’t Buy Me Love,” by John Lennon and Paul McCarthy.)
Chorus
Can buy the votes
Money can buy the votes
Can buy the votes
If the people who vote are dopes
Verses:
I’ll buy me a chunk of media time
To sling-shot mud, oh well
Tell them the truth or sell them a lie?
Friend, the lie works twice as well
The fact is nobody reads the facts
So money can buy the votes
(Repeat chorus)
I know you believe that you have one vote
But I know that isn’t true
You’re brain washed and you’ll vote my way
So, really I cast your vote too
I have lots of money chumps
And money can buy the votes
(Repeat chorus)
The highest court in the land of the free
Like a thief stealing votes in the night
Made fairness an absurdity
Holding super Pac cash alright
I have lots of money chumps
And money can buy the votes
Can buy the votes
Money can buy the votes
Can buy the votes
If the people who vote are dopes
