the people wait






The pirates want the publicity
Going on to meet the people
Let them feel how important they are
The fishing votes into the future

The small tokens to swing
The pirates hope to get the mandate
In the election when it is called
The smiling people never tell their stories

The people smile and laugh
Hand shakes and be cowed
Into the dens of small benefits
The pirates wish the people know

For decades the pirates plunder
The wealth of the nation.......
From the sea to the land
Even back doors they don't care

When they find their empire is dying
They want to soothe for past decades
Giving alms and goodies
They hope the people forget

The eyes of the people
They have seen the way
They are now better equipped and informed
They will not be cowed any more

The people wait
The opportunity to hit the box
The time is drawing near
The change of landscape soon
