Living Dead in Washington, D.C. Nick Lutsko

[Verse 1]
We all aim to retire at the age of 65
It's a carrot we spend chasing most of our lives
That's not the case though in Washington, D.C
More than half of elected officials match the textbook definition of elderly

Some are legends, sure, some are wise, but
Should anyone run for anything past the age of 75
Every branch of government is filled with people from both sides
Who were old enough to drive, before civil rights

[Chorus]
Living dead in Washington, D.C
Gently rotted corpses uphold democracy
Gallivanting past the average life expectancy
Bloated, stinking corpses haunt Washington, D.C

[Verse 2]
Let me set things straight, I don't mean no disrepect
There ain't nothing wrong with being confused by the internet
But you're blocking legislation and it's making folks upset
Why not keep some dignity and ride off into the sunset

Enjoy your grandkids while you still can
Or write a book, or house the poor, or start a band
Get away from the Ghouls and their skeletons too
Start preparing your defense for when the reaper comes for you
