about

This song was written about the state of national governance in the UK, but it equally applies to the mess in the US. On the eve of the 2020 Presidential election, this is my small contribution to the campaign for democracy!

lyrics

This Quiet Coup


If you grieve for our broken land
The thieves and liars who are somehow in command
If you’re sickened by the powers-that-be
And all their cronies and their shameless greed
If you’re moving up with hope and pride
But these fools are bent on ecocide
And if you hate what we’ve become
You’re not the only one

And their corruption happens in plain view
This quiet coup

I’m calling out the lies and graft
These kleptocrats, these sociopaths
I put my stock in facts and truth
And Black Lives Matter - of course they do!
I’m for the cause of democracy
To bring an end to this insanity
So saddle up and, as your conscience leads you on, remember:
You’re not the only one

Write a letter
Tweet
Protest
Raise awareness
Get active
Vote the scoundrels out!
