Democracy
DEMOCRACY.
Hats off to Demosthenes!
Democracy, Democracy,
But...
In Australia,
Bit of a failure,
Forced to vote for politicians...
We elect politicians,
We need leaders of power and vision,
Not talking heads on the television!
Compelled to vote in a democracy?
Still our lucky country,
O tempora, O mores!
Democracy, Democracy,
Hats off to Demosthenes!
