Everything fits nicely into place

Higher powers take the lead

Middleman sits pondering his worth

One great scheme to stem the objective urge

Decision making

Power playing

One upmanship

Show of hands

To clasp the myth

Vote in a new scourge

Everything fits nicely into place

Higher powers take the lead

Issues are decided before we've chance to think

Moral high ground wins the day again

Decision making

And power playing

Principles spurned

Show of hands

To clasp the myth

Favors for my friends

It's a constitutional hell

Where they pontificate and yell

Where etiquettes outplay integrity

It's a constitutional hell

It's a constitutional hell

Real place is brought to the plans

That's where you excel or not in contention

It's a constitutional hell

Everything fits nicely into place

Higher powers take the lead

I'll sum up on all the good

You've done this earth

Everything fits nicely into place

Higher powers take the lead

Middleman sits pondering his worth

One great scheme to stem the objective urge

Nothing, nothing
