Democracy by Max Levine Ensemble
Democracy lyrics
I saw you and you were walking along,
You had your fist in the air you sang oh oh oh,
1 - 2 - 3 you could turn back to me and say,
�THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE!�
Then like two leaves caught in the current we float,
We don�t know where we�re going but we go to go,
It goes you and me got a couple of things on which we
can agree,
But what�s that worth anyway?
Walk downtown and you�re hearing this sound,
You can feel it around,
It goes �you and me and a bullet makes one,�
And it�s not just a gun, it�s a whole philosophy.
But there�s a lot of fucking people out there
Who won�t be moved by some flyers full of slogans and
rhetoric.
We could use some fresh perspective around here,
But we�ve got mountains to move, so let�s do our
fucking homework..
There�s not a lot of use in patting our backs
When there�s planes overhead and there�s cities burning
down.
It goes �me and you and a bullet makes one.�
Not to spoil your fun, but I�m not having it.
Watch out for who shuts up and who pulls the strings.
Watch out for �R-E-E-L-E-C-T,�
And if you shout at a wall at least it shows you can
scream,
And ask, �IS THIS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE?
THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE!�
