Lyrics
DEMOCRACY IS DYING
CHORUS Democracy is dying
Sad to see it go.
The folks who could save it,
They're all lying low.
The politicians yell and scream.
Making little sense.
When oh when will
They get off of the fence.
VERSE So who will save us?
Who will take a stand?
Otherwise we're lost,
Freedom's dying in the land.
So come on people,
It's time for us to fight.
We've got to stand up now
Before we lose that light.
CHORUS Democracy is dying
Sad to see it go.
The folks who could save it,
They're all lying low.
The politicians yell and scream.
Making little sense.
When oh when will
They get off of the fence.
VERSE Good people are dying,
Shot down in the streets.
Thugs are starting riots,
And sending out false tweets.
They blame the peaceful protestors
When they're behind the crime.
We need truth more than ever.
Let's act while there's still time.
CHORUS Democracy is dying
Sad to see it go.
The folks who could save it,
They're all lying low.
The politicians yell and scream.
Making little sense.
When oh when will
They get off of the fence.
BRIDGE Then there's the pandemic.
It's stalking everywhere.
But some people just ignore it.
They act like they don't care.
But soon will come a reckoning.
More folks are gonna die.
We're all in this together,
Please, let's not take sides.
CHORUS Democracy is dying
Sad to see it go.
The folks who could save it,
They're all lying low.
The politicians yell and scream.
Making little sense.
When oh when will
They get off of the fence.
