The Great Compromise Lyrics
[RACHEL]
I always thought I'd live
In a house with a dog, and some kids, and some slaves
A mat at the door that said "Welcome!"
And a sign on the fence that says "Private Home: Don't Enter!"
And I'd never compromise
I hear you talk and talk
About what you want
The travel, the fighting
The pictures in the paper
The killing and campaigning
The sign on your door says "Populism, Yea, Yea!"
You tell me not to compromise
You tell me that you'll change
You promise and you promise
But I hear you talk and talk
About what you want
And you get what you want
And you promise and you promise
You promise and you promise
[RACHEL]
But oh-oh
I'm so through with compromising!
I'm so through with compromising!
I'm so through with compromising!
We have no private life
You give up nothing!
I give up everything!
You give up nothing!
We have no private life!
You give up nothing!
I give up everything!
[COMPANY]
Jackson's back!
He's got it going on!
Jackson's back!
He's got it going on!
So vote for Jackson!
Vote for Jackson!
Vote for Jackson!
Vote for Jackson!
Vote for Jackson!
[RACHEL]
You give up nothing!
