It's What You Do, Not What You Say

Some would say don't mix politics with religion
I have never felt that way
It seems political issues are always
A search for right, wrong or gray

And if the search is a search for doing what's right
If that is what this is about
Of course you should involve religion
You should not kick it out

But some politicians will wrap themselves in the cloak of religion
Just like they wrap themselves in the cloak of a flag
Donald Trump has been known to use the Bible as his prop
But you should ask if his practices lag

What of the Second Commandment?
The one that speaks of loving your neighbors?
Is he forever finding fault and finding names to call his foes?
Does he ridicule and demean others?
And always look to land verbal blows?

I really shouldn't need to go further than this
You can see what Donald is
And if you want a politician who practices religion
You know Donald is the opposite whiz

But go ahead and ask yourself questions
About all the other things you might see
Wonder about cheating and lying
They should matter, I hope you'll agree
