Common Groound

This country we love is tearing apart
And the leaders we choose don't know where to start
Or maybe it's because they just don't care

They've lined their pockets at our expense
And they don't even care what we're for or against
They sell their votes and now they're all millionaires

And it doesn't matter if they're red or blue
They'll change their stripes and their point of view
To get reelected when their turn comes around

But we should refuse to give them our vote
If they don't make an effort to keep us afloat
And reach across the aisle and find some common ground

Common ground, common ground
It's not as hard as you'all make it sound
You think that you can't win unless you tear the other down
So, no one even looks for common ground

We're split down the middle, so nothing gets done
And you're branded a traitor if you spoil their fun
Here's a big shout-out to Senators Kyrsten and Joe. YEAAAAA!

Buck your party if you know they're wrong
And never forget the people back home
Find common ground and you'll be their hero

Think about your country and the people you serve
And build a coalition if you've got the nerve
Find Dems and Pubs who'll meet you on common ground

You might be surprised at the friends you find
If you set aside your politics and open your mind
And just get together and find some common ground

Common ground, common ground
It's not as hard as you all make it sound
But you think that you can't win unless you tear the other down
So, no one even looks for common ground

Common ground, common ground
It's not too late to turn this ship around
But, if you're going to act like children, then we'll sit your fannies down
And then you'll finally be on common ground

Yeah, if you're going to act like children, then we'll sit your fannies down
And then you'll finally be on common ground

Common ground
Common ground
Find common ground
