Song Lyrics Below:

Chorus: The Tyranny of the Minority makes a wasteland of the Land of the Free (2x)

Once we had parks and libraries and schools now we have potholes and prisons (potheads in prison)
Now the Land of the Free's too expensive for me, but how can our hopes be arisen?
One-third plus one's not the way that it's done, anywhere else but here
Which is why we are broken and things come undone, the reason is crystal clear
(Chorus )

They shut every thing down, watch the Government drown, and laugh as our lifeline unravels
Your vote's fully counted, and then thrown away, as a veto bangs down like a gavel.
They take all of the power and none of the blame, as the rest of us lose our foundations.
Opportunity's knocked down again and again, as we change to a plutocrat nation.
(Chorus)

Theyve got the money, but we have the numbers, It's time for a trip to the polls.
When majority rules that majority rules, We'll all get a shot at our goals.
Let the people decide how the state should employ its energy time and resources.
When Democracy rules, there is justice for all that majority vote reinforces.
(Chorus)
