RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: AMERICAN DEMOCRACY
Democracy is Dead
Democracy is by and by
Racing swiftly to the grave
Its founding always was a lie
The people were enslaved
Where were you on that solemn day
When the dream was put to bed?
Did you hear our vaunted leaders say
Democracy is dead?
Did it catch you by surprise?
Did you think it was enshrined?
You couldn’t see through all the lies
All the planets realigned
We warned you it could fall
Without a strong defense
We were up against the wall
We warned you what it meant
So now we are consigned
To a life under the gun
We’ll have to toe the line
The oligarchs have won
