Try and be political

Give meaning to your worth

Open your eyes to stay alive

Cause a reason for your birth.

Take into account that you're the screw

A hammer just won't do

Twist yourself into the small confines

of the earth and into the Big Blue

Listen for the cat-calls from

lonely hearts

Be an ear and a shoulder to lean

Try and be the best you'll never dream

Give meaning to your nasty screams.

Once all is said and done

At the end we'll see who's won

Then bend across to loosen your screw

Maybe, by then,

we'll know exactly what to do.

Try and be political

Give meaning to your worth

Today is a new day

To find a reason for your birth.
