Lyrics to Derek Webb's "A Savior On Capitol Hill"

I'm so tired of these mortal men

With their hands in their pockets and their hearts full of sin

Scared of their enemies, scared of their friends

And always running for re-election

So come to DC if it be thy will 

Because we've never had a saviour on Capitol Hill

You can always trust the devil or a politician

To be the devil or a politician

But beyond that friends you'd best beware

'Cause at the Pentagon bar they're an inseparable pair

And as long as the lobbyists are paying their bills

We've never had a saviour on Capitol Hill

All of our problems gonna disappear

When we can whisper right in our President's ear

He could walk right across the reflection pool

In his combat boots and ten thousand dollar suit

You can render unto Caesar everything that's his

You can trust in his power to come to your defense

It's the way of the world, the way of the gun

It's the trading of an evil for a lesser one

So don't hold your breath or your vote until

You think you've finally found a savior up on Capitol Hill
