Your Vote – Not Your Voice – new song and drawing

New song, written by pirate Joke sent from the enemy fortress where she is being held. With a fitting drawing of her to go with it! The timing is no accident: elections coming Wednesday…

Your vote – not your voice

Refrain: We want –

You vote, not your voice
Because this is democracy
We’re giving you a choice to
Cooperate with authority, so…

Let’s have another TV debate
about the climate ‘cause it is too late
to save the planet just in time
while politicians wine and dine

Let’s paste the walls with posters of faces
with ties and suits and money wasted
to seduce you with a promise or two
nothing truthful and nothing new …>>> refr.

Let’s make you believe we are her just for you
that it makes a difference, red or blue
We’lll save the nation just in time
‘gainst immigration we draw the line

We make pretend with a toothpaste smile
with words of hate that are in style
with fear that we created so well
what’s the difference you just can’t tell >>> refr.

Letś make sure what you don’t see
why we need you to agree
to vote and leave your voice behind
keep working, never speak your mind

Divide and conquer for capitalist’s sake
we cannot use you wide awake
‘cause we are tolls for profits world wide
We are puppets – we won’t turn the tide
