Elected Leader

I sit on this ancient seat
Knowing the future is bleaker
I ache as the floorboards creak
And the pit stands for the speaker
Knowing the poor will be weaker
Like a herd of conquered sheep

We applaud the elected leader
We applaud the elected leader
We applaud the elected leader

What will this country become
If we leave without a discussion?
Will the future be kind to the young?
Or will they be left with nothing?
With such grave repercussions
Why must I bite my tongue?

We applaud the elected leader
We applaud the elected leader
We applaud the elected leader

How can you be sure we should leave?
When all you’ve achieved
Is looking naive

The public will never, ever, ever be pleased
Because you lied and deceived
And made them believe they’re against us

Just admit
You played a trick
To benefit
The few
Who really knew
What we were getting into

Harmony through conflict
Differences but bonded
And every day
There’s a vision of a friend responding

Harmony through conflict

And every day
There’s a vision of a friend responding

Harmony through conflict
Differences but bonded
And every day
There’s a vision of a friend responding

Harmony through conflict
Differences but bonded
And every day
There’s a vision of a friend responding

Harmony through conflict
Differences but bonded
And every day
There’s a vision of a friend responding
