Shut it down, shut it down, government in disarray,Politicians playing games, citizens gotta pay,

Shut it down, shut it down, government in disarray,
Politicians playing games, citizens gotta pay,
In the capital, they bicker, while we suffer every day,
Shut it down, shut it down, time to find a better way.

Gridlock in the halls, decisions on pause,
Shutdown looming large, like a government clause,
Debates in echoes, while the people bear the cost,
Leaders pointing fingers, democracy almost lost.

Budgets in limbo, like a ship without a sail,
Public servants furloughed, the system's bound to fail,
Families feeling the strain, as the rhetoric prevails,
In this political storm, who's steering the trail?

Enough of the shutdown, it's time to break the chain,
Find common ground, let solutions reign,
The people need a voice, not this endless refrain,
Shut it down, shut it down, let compromise regain.

Shut it down, shut it down, government in disarray,
Politicians playing games, citizens gotta pay,
In the capital, they bicker, while we suffer every day,
Shut it down, shut it down, time to find a better way.
