[Verse]
Bottles lined up on the shelf
Labels promising wealth
Take a swig tastes like lies
Burns your throat no surprise
[Verse 2]
They sell it smooth call it gold
But it’s bitter cold and old
Cans dented masks their face
Just like power out of place
[Chorus]
Politicians like cheap beer
Talk is cheap and never clear
Foam on top no substance near
Swallow it down then disappears
[Verse 3]
Promises fizz like stale brew
Say they care it ain't true
Pay for the drink pay the price
Same old lies in new disguise
[Bridge]
Raise a glass to their charade
Toast to the games that they played
Pour it out drown the sound
Same old tricks coming around
[Chorus]
Politicians like cheap beer
Talk is cheap and never clear
Foam on top no substance near
Swallow it down then disappears
