People Lead |
| When the people lead |
| the leaders will have to follow |
| and all their alibies |
| they will have to swallow |
| and it’s you that has the authority |
| for the one who is right |
| is the majority |
| when the people lead |
| people take the lead |
| children you’ve got to take your lead |
| or you shall be led astray |
| so as long as someone else |
| controls your history |
| the truth shall remain just a mystery |
| for you can lead a horse to the water |
| but you cannot make him drink |
| you can put a man through school |
| but you cannot make him think |
| when the people lead |
| people take the lead |
| children you’ve got to take your lead |
| or you shall be led astray |
| watch them try to hide |
| this world’s imposition |
| but like disease that has come around |
| from remission |
| when it seems |
| as if it has left your person |
| all the while it has only worsened |
| when the people lead |
| people shall take the lead |
| children you’ve got to take your lead |
| or you shall be led astray |
