Let’s call a spade a spade
Politics is a masquerade
Tenets of Democracy mislaid
Like a fake wedding promenade
Laws for them they will evade
Laws for us will be obeyed
We have all just been betrayed
Corporatized government charade
Like a bizarre carnival arcade
They make us feel afraid
Most voters are duly swayed
It’s how this game is played
So let’s just call a spade a spade

"It's alright ma - I'm only rhyming"

Regarding my verses titled, "let's Call a Spade a Spade", you asked whether I am a Dylan fan, too. I am. However, Dylan had a time span in which he wrote and played songs. He has since veered from these kind of messages. David Rovics still is one of the current troubadousr for social justice.
