Re-Position and Re-Possession

They’ll take it away they’ll take it away
See them talk much of freedom
Just to take it Aa-way…
There’s talk of disruption; there was talk
Of great fear, rumour and murmur
It’s been never real clear
They’ve played in emotion on the health service too…
Elevated to a point; that whatever they’d
Do, would just go unquestioned by the
Many or few.
They’ll take it away they’ll take it away
To protect your dear freedom they’ll take it away?
Even though there are medics who have
Been really brave. Who walked from a 
Service that has become a slave
Yes they’d take it away ohh they’d take it away
Your desires inner fire; they’d take it away
But the people aren’t stupid they have 
Learned on the way, now they will march in
Their millions, the horizons will sway
There is talk at the bus stop; there is
Talk in the morgues; conjecture on golf
Greens in land and sea ports
The resentment is building as the Knowledge is too, we are not
Medieval
Or illiterate fools 
We know there’s a sickness that has
Got out of hand
It’s just plain coercion
We have the following plan
We’ll take it way we’ll take it way, we will
Dance on your evil delusions as we take them 
Aa-waay.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 1/1/2023 12:29:00 PM Love this, Joe. It's even a bit like a song with the refrain . If polished up to be shorter like a song, I could see it being sung by freedom fighters. happy New Year to you, my friend.

Maybe a More uniform refrain line would be key?
