Lucky Dube - Political Games lyrics

How do you feel when you lie? Straight faced while people cry How do you feel when you promise something That you know you'll never do Giving false hope to the people Giving false hope to the underpriviledged Do you really sleep at night? When you know you're living a lie To you it is just a job To the people it hurts to the bone [Chorus:] Ooh political games that they play [x4] What do you say to the orphans? Of the women and men you sent to war What do you say to the widows? Of the men you sent to war Telling them it is good for the country When you know it's good for your ego What a shame. Do you really sleep at night? When you know you're living a lie You talking tough, you talking sincerely Giving false hope to the infected Giving false hope to the affected. To you it is just a job To the people it hurts to the bone. [Chorus:] Ooh political games that they play [Till fade]
