Its been tough and tardy<\/div>\n
Its been really hard <\/div>\n
Too much too choose from<\/div>\n
But too little are my options<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Too many leaders around<\/div>\n
Too much they promise<\/div>\n
Whom should I select <\/div>\n
Whom should I opt for<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Its too hard to decide<\/div>\n
Its too tough to accept<\/div>\n
All they do is show up<\/div>\n
When they want my support<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Once they win they disappear<\/div>\n
Like they are some strangers<\/div>\n
They come to my door once<\/div>\n
Then make me run from pillar to post<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
They call themselves my leader<\/div>\n
But I just become a reader<\/div>\n
I see them once in five years<\/div>\n
Then they become headlines<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
They feature in magazines<\/div>\n
They feature in newspapers<\/div>\n
They talk on talk shows<\/div>\n
But what I don’t see is work!!<\/div>\n
