Hey, sit down and listen and they’ll tell you when you’re wrong,
C# G# D# A#
Eradicate but vindicate as «progress» creeps along,
C# G# D# F
Puritan work ethic maintains its subconscious edge,
C# D# F
As old glory maintains your consciousness
C# D# F

There’s a loser in the house and a puppet on a stool,
C# G# D# A#
And a crowded way of life and a black reflecting pool,
C# G# D# F
And as the people bend the moral fabric dies,
C# D# F#
Then country can’t pretend to ignore its people’s cries
C# D# F

You are the government,
F D# F G# D# G# D#
You are jurisprudence,
F D# F G# D# G# D#
You are the volition,
F D# F G# D# G# D#
You are jurisdiction
F C# G# D# F
And I make a difference too
