Willing to help yet increasing the fall
Changing the place and building a wall
Speaking the truth and supporting the fraud

Yawning in public and playing the lord

Contradicted

Looking almost unwise
Inconsistent
Criticized


What you do is not lucid wisdom
Got to become the people's choice

What you stress is not a charisma
Got to win another vote


[Chorus:]
One can
Rise above

And now you can
Rise above


Messing around and talking a lot
Smiling a little and giving a nod
Kissing the poor and winning a war

Killing the wounded and becoming a !@^%

Equalized by mass production

Advertising public reforms
What you do is not your commission
Stipulating basic norms


Neither laws nor the cause
Make you feel at a loss


[Chorus]
