about

the title track... at once a forlorn reflection on $$$ democracy and a real chorus of hope for change to take the album to the end.
i've reworked some of the hero that was eugene debs speeches at the chorus ending.

lyrics

democracy its plain to see, it doesn't work for you and me
it only works for dead hearts of stone.
they tell us its democracy, that we got a choice you see
a choice between a dead heart dead soul.
take it to the left collectivise take it to the left... collectivise me
so lining up to vote you see, doesn't mean democracy
it just legalises corporate lies.
bush n thatcher blair and clinton, there's no difference you see
just a choice between a dead heart dead soul.
take it to the left collectivise take it to the left... collectivise me

"lets begin the march to the greatest civilisation that the human race has ever known"

so... "lets get together lets be friends, a big big love to all we send,
lets make the world the peoples home.
