Pendulum Swings
Congresspeople on the cusp,
who's opposing who?
Pendulum swings one way,
and then, back again, too.
Just who is right and who is wrong,
I will leave up to you,
but you better not make the wrong choice,
if you want us to be happy, not blue.
Pendulum swings from right to wrong,
from good to bad like in the song.
Why pendulum swings from good to bad,
in spite of all of the data we've had?
The old seems to be new again,
in the eyes of the pampered few.
They cannot see innovation's role,
for we the peopleÉ all of you.
Do we want a bright new future,
or do we want the oppressive past?
answer is in how the pendulum swings,
when our final votes are cast.

What little democracy we have is at stake. Be careful
how you voteÉ and by all means, do not just give upÉ Vote!
