Parliament

I'm stretching my legs; I’m bending my knees

I don’t exercise much but now I’m at ease on cement

Down at the old Parliament

I’m walking on eggs; I’ve got a beard made of bees

What appeared like a forest was many small trees, we’re the list

Hold your chin up high and raise your fist

This is all of my rage in a single phrase

We came here on a bus; don’t forget you work for us

Even though we’re displeased I guess you had our votes

But our rights were seized, made some sheep out of goats, and you said

I will decide who will be well fed

This is all of my rage in a single song

If it were just my call, then you wouldn’t be there for long

Now, dying for a hospital bed

Depression contagiously spreads

Everyday’s a repeat of the same tragedy

Now, nothing is done but all has been said

No one’s hitting the nail on the head

In a room infected by their apathy

Canadian oil, we extract from the soil

Nuclear soldiers, fire and fires, we’ve

Stolen all the fish from the dirty sea

At the old Parliament, things are moving way too slow

We are paying the rent; I think we should run the show

Now, there are missiles pointing at me

There are kids caught in the debris

And my shirt was extorted from their family

Now I can’t live with my head in the sand

I can’t be under foolish command

What we need is to have a democracy
