There was a house They built it strong But let it sit, no time for it The windows broke, the roof got holes The walls caved in, the bricks they fell And it was rubble Democracy is a house, it might not last You gotta see, you gotta try And keep it up, and keep it strong Or it's going to fall. If we just live for today And don't think what else we could do or spend or save If we just give all the oil To those who make most noise If we just feel but don't stop to think Or just do and do just do get the vote If we can't split the truth from the empty noise We gonna lose out house We'll be out in the cold And freedom will die because we gave it away Democracy is a house, it might not last You gotta see, you gotta try And keep it up, and keep it strong Or it's going to fall. We need to stop sowing bad seeds Cus that's not what we need We need to keep our house strong Or the walls they will fall
