Lyrics

Governor, you can't avoid the call. I look in a blurry crystal ball. All the same corrupt and dirty politics remain, and you know it. Here we are, our back against the wall. I'm sorry but Rome has yet to fall. All we know is that oily awful Texan's got to go, can you show it?

You look the part, but your heart can't deny anymore, it won't bleed bad enough to know it. Please don't blow it!

Carry on. Not all the hope is gone. Fight back 'cause the worst is yet to come. End the reign and put the oily Texan on a train back to Crawford.

You can't deny your heart.
