I am a Democratic Socialist 
I believe that the People should rule
I believe that the taxes collected
should be used for each life-saving tool

For nobody gets rich on a island
and it isn’t just fortune or luck
It takes legislative-corporate corruption 
it is capitalism, running amok

All those products the billionaires sell us
charging upgrades for every new year
Truth be told, if we just stopped the buying 
it is they who would feel all the fear

For the rich only care about money
keeping Office is what Reps fight for
And the taxes we pay keep on feeding
the corruption that always wants more
