Most Politicians Are Poem by Francis Duggan

Most politicians are crooks in disguise
And they even believe their own lies
Their word not worth one piece of dust
You just cannot take them on trust
For themselves they do quite okay
Yet hard to believe anything they do say
To promote themselves they are not shy
And their promises they often deny
Their political opponents they like to run down
As the most unworthy people of the town
But like true political opponents to their calling they are true
In their put down words repay to them their due
Most politicians are for me, myself and I
And to them it comes easy to lie.
