Oh, the snake in the grass, with a politician's smile
Slithers through the promises, all the while in guile
With a hiss and a grin, he charms you with his flair
But turn your back, he strikes, oh how life's unfair

Oh, the world of beasts and the suits in ties
Both play their games, both tell their lies
From the cunning snake to the sneaky rat
Politicians and animals, they’re birds of a feather, fancy that

Now the vulture, oh so noble, circling up high
Waits for you to falter, waits for you to die
Just like a politician, with an eye on your seat
He'll feast on your failure, oh, isn't that sweet?

Oh, the world of beasts and the suits in ties
Both play their games, both tell their lies
From the patient vulture to the lurking shark
Politicians and animals, both love the dark

Look at that rat, so clever, scurrying through the night
He’s got his little schemes, stays just out of sight
Politicians, oh they're the same, in the shadows they scheme
Nibbling at the edges, living the dream

Oh, the world of beasts and the suits in ties
Both play their games, both tell their lies
From the quick-witted rat to the chameleon so sly
Politicians and animals, both love the dark
Oh, the world of beasts and the suits in ties
Both play their games, both tell their lies
From the quick-witted rat to the chameleon so sly
Politicians and animals, both love the dark
Both love the dark

And the chameleon, so charming, changing every hue
He’ll tell you what you want to hear, it's all just a ruse
Like a politician, who shifts with the breeze
Blending into any crowd, doing as they please

Oh, the world of beasts and the suits in ties
Both play their games, both tell their lies
From the tricky chameleon to the cunning fox
Politicians and animals, sly as a paradox
Oh, the world of beasts and the suits in ties
Both play their games, both tell their lies
From the tricky chameleon to the cunning fox
Politicians and animals, sly as a paradox
Oh, the world of beasts and the suits in ties
Both play their games, both tell their lies
From the tricky chameleon to the cunning fox
Politicians and animals, sly as a paradox

So here’s to the creatures, and the men we elect
Both masters of deception, what did we expect?
In this jungle of power, where they scheme and they plan
Stay sharp, stay alert, or you’re a part of their scam
