Whistleblower
I’d rather be a whistleblower
Fighting for the right
Then just another thistle grower
Plucking out of sight
A whistleblower blows to be
The keeper of our crimes
A thistle-mower painfully
Is catching hell at times
The whistleblower wants to break
The folk who fake on us
The thistle-grower wants to make
The poke redeem the pus
Oh cautiously but selflessly
The whistleblower blows
Oh warily but carefully
The thistle-grower goes
The whistleblower fearlessly
Is fanning freedom's flame
The thistle-grower tearfully
Is plucking just the same.
