1806 - Praise the Lord and pass the ballot paper

In America the Republican
Presidential candidates are coming
Out from the shadows into the open
A faith in God seems to be the first thing
They feel they must declare, like arriving
At an airport, revealing your baggage
To millions of inspectors, then going
Through a religious X-ray arch to gauge
Their fitness to enter office, the cage
That's oval-shaped, the goal for which they run
To be a ceremonial head, doing
As little as possible, disengage
From progressive programs soon as they can
Saying it's the old values they're keeping
