Some Lyrics:
....Cause I still haven’t learned about democracy
But I still haven’t learned about democracy
You paid your tax and you
Laid the blame
Carried the burden
Of my shame
Of my shame
You know I’m still running
Cause I still haven’t learned about democracy
No I still haven’t learned about democracy
But I still haven’t learned about democracy
But I still haven’t learned about democracy...
