Indecent Majority

It was 1997

And you were sick of the government

So you voted in the right-wing alternative

The people's commando, paddy ashdown

Went on a secret mission to infiltrate the cabinet

And not come out

But tony was having none of that

And paddy fell for the pr trap

Now he said: "we don't want you on our patch

We're strong enough to do anything we want"

With an indecent majority there's no effective opposition

So in comes mr kennedy

From dear old ross and cromarty

Full of tact, diplomacy

And quiet as the socialists these days

It was one year past 2000

And people on my bus were saying

That they will never vote again

The country gripped by apathy

And people filled with a sense of their own uselessness

That's just so false

If no-one questions anything then how's anything going to change? (x4)
