Common Ground Lyrics

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
