The volunteers were tired
Heads were hanging low
The news had spoiled their appetite
For stuffing envelopesTwelve points was an awful lot to be down in the polls
With only two weeks to goShouldering the phone
Loosening his tie
His running mate on pricks and pins
Hovering besideThe candidate wrote furiously as if to save his life
Then hung up the phone and spoke with great convictionWhen you're nothing but a boyfriend
Dangling by a thread
Keep in mind the bottom line
Diamonds are a girls best friendInches from the goal
One thing on his mind
To get behind her desk and make
Some big decisionsPower can be such a tease, you're always wanting more
It's good to know that just like sex it can be paid forWhen you're nothing but a boyfriend
Dangling by a thread
Keep in mind the bottom line
Diamonds are a girls best friend
