A Few Honest Words |
| If you’re going to lead my country |
| If you’re gonna say it’s free |
| I’m gonna need a little honesty |
| Just a few honest words |
| It shouldn’t be that hard |
| Just a few honest words is all I need |
| I don’t need no handshake |
| No firm look in the eye |
| Don’t tell me what you think I, I ought to hear |
| I don’t need no high life |
| No fancy premieres |
| Just tell me what you really think without fear |
| Just a few honest words |
| It shouldn’t be that hard |
| Just a few honest words is all I need |
| Love is a bitter fruit |
| We’ve learned to eat |
| But we still don’t know, oh, where it grows |
| And our love of freedom |
| Holds a veil over our eyes |
| Rights that are given can be taken away |
| Just a few honest words |
| It shouldn’t be that hard |
| Just a few honest words is all I need |
| We don’t choose our leaders |
| They choose themselves |
| Tell me again about democracy |
