The volunteers were tired |
|
Heads were hanging low |
|
The news had spoiled their appetite |
|
For stuffing envelopes |
|
Twelve points was an awful lot to be down in the polls |
|
With only two weeks to go |
|
Shouldering the phone |
|
Loosening his tie |
|
His running mate on pricks and pins |
|
Hovering beside |
|
The candidate wrote furiously as if to save his life |
|
Then hung up the phone and spoke with great conviction |
|
When you're nothing but a boyfriend |
|
Dangling by a thread |
|
Keep in mind the bottom line |
|
Diamonds are a girls best friend |
|
Inches from the goal |
|
One thing on his mind |
|
To get behind her desk and make |
|
Some big decisions |
|
Power can be such a tease, you're always wanting more |
|
It's good to know that just like sex it can be paid for |
|
When you're nothing but a boyfriend |
|
Dangling by a thread |
|
Keep in mind the bottom line |
|
Diamonds are a girls best friend |
