The Lyrics

why are you building up, (building up) runnerups, lefty?
when they'll let you down, and give you the run around,
worst of all, they're lyin all day, they yell and act so shrill,
and they always will, yes they do yes they do,
more that any one darlin, communist right from the start
they're building up ( building up ) runnerups that break your heart

just trust me again, they said time and again,
they're not great they flip around and then
they come to your door, those political whores
b.s you, to let you down again

hey hey hey baby baby I don't mind
hey hey hey a little time to see their slime
hey hey hey kiss my bone
I'll be beside the phone to hang up on you

why are you building up, (building up) runnerups, lefty?
when they'll let you down, and give you the run around,
worst of all, they're lyin all day, they yell and act so shrill,
and they always will, yes they do yes they do,
more that any one darlin, communist right from the start
they're building up ( building up ) runnerups that break your heart

they'd steal your toys, and yell lies just for noise, at your door
so we'll just let them know
we know they all lie, just F**K off and die, you red whore
why do we hate you so?

hey hey hey baby baby I don't mind
hey hey hey a little time to see their slime
hey hey hey kiss my bone
I'll be beside the phone to hang up on you

why are you building up, (building up) runnerups, lefty?
when they'll let you down, and give you the run around,
worst of all, they're lyin all day, they yell and act so shrill,
and they always will, yes they do yes they do,
more that any one darlin, communist right from the start
they're building up ( building up ) runnerups that break your heart

I hate you I hate you, you're a communist darlin,
see through you right from the start
you're building up building up runnerups,
right from the start
