Democracy |
| I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know |
| Better than you |
| I know, I know, I know, I know, I know |
| This much is true |
| So many times it’s left me battered and bruised |
| Disillusioned, in pain, feeling I’ve been used |
| I swear I’ll give it up, before it downright kills me |
| Then it comes back again, with promises that thrill me |
| And I forget what I really should know |
| And I forget that it’s just a big, big show |
| And I dream, oh I dream, of all it could be |
| And once more, I believe, I believe, I believe |
| In democracy |
| Oooh, democracy |
| Democracy |
| It’s broken my heart so many times before |
| But this one was the worst |
| Left me screamin' on the floor |
| I was taught in the land of the free |
| In the land where they screamed at me |
| «Life! |
| Liberty!» |
| How can I turn my back |
| On democracy? |
| Am I still in pain, suffering from trauma? |
| Am I insane, addicted to drama? |
| Oh, oh, oh! |
| And I forget what I really should know |
| I forget that it’s just a big, big show |
| And I dream that my people can be |
| They can be wise enough, just enough |
| Worthy of trust enough, kind enough, smart enough |
| With a big heart enough |
| Good and grown-up enough |
| To lift us up, lift us up, lift us up, lift us up! |
| And I dream |
| They can be somehow worthy of— |
| Look, this country’s a disaster |
| In so many ways |
| But we have the power |
| We have the power |
| We have the power to change |
| That’s why I believe in— |
| I know, I know, I know, I know |
| I believe, oh I believe |
| I believe in |
| Democracy |
