This song is my contribution to Thunder Machine (מכונת הרעם, "Mekhonet haRa'am"), a pro-democracy song contest organised by Suno creators in Israel ahead of that country's general election on October 27, 2026.

Thunder Machine's organisers invited me to send a song. My late wife Dalia was Israeli, so this has personal significance for me, even from afar. So I took the opportunity to have my say - and to encourage others to have their say too.

If you have a vote in this election, you don't have to just accept what's being done in your name. You do have a choice. I urge you to make it count.

29 rounds in the mag
Push down, check - click
Tall at the gate with their
Foot on ya neck

Bantustan and it
Ain't no plan
The yellow planet
Golden land

29 bullets but ya heart's still full
Had no choice, make 'em hear your voice
One vote, one chance, one choice, who ya fightin'
For? Make 'em hear your voice

Ya life on the line
Send ya skin on patrol
Yeah, you're a soldier
But ya still got soul

29 rounds, you were only eighteen
Crushed ya dreams in olive green
One vote, one chance, one choice, who ya fightin'
For? Make 'em hear your voice...

"Collateral damage..."

"...אתה רוצה להכניס את הבת שלי למדים? אז תן לי סיבה"

Had no choice, make 'em hear your voice
Had no choice, make 'em hear your voice
Had no choice, make 'em hear your voice
Had no choice, make 'em hear your voice

29 bullets but ya heart's still full
Had no choice, make 'em hear your voice
29 rounds, you were only eighteen
Crushed ya dreams in olive green

One vote, one chance, one choice, who ya
Who ya fightin' for? Make 'em hear your voice
One vote, one chance, one choice, who ya, who ya, who ya
Fightin' for? Make 'em hear your voice...

Who ya fightin' for? Make 'em hear your voice.
