If you listen, you will hear
The sounds of discontent
As the people join together to
Defy the president.
We meet to send a message to
The one who would be king,
Who only pays attention to
The sounds that go ker-ching.
You'll see us on the sidewalks
And in parks and city squares,
As we say we are tired of being
Controlled by billionaires.
The president thinks it's okay
To do whatever he wants.
He knows that Republicans
Will fear his jeers and taunts.
Every effort is being made
For people to be erased
From history. The government
Is doing it in great haste.
We watch as many people now
Are forced to live in fear.
They try to live their daily lives;
Then BAM! they disappear.
They're sent off to prison that
Is in a far-off land.
How people can put up with this
Is hard to understand.
The DOJ's being weaponized.
Trump says it's required
That anyone not loyal to him
Be canned, be ousted, be fired!
Needless tariffs are raising prices;
People are losing employment.
The pain we suffer seems to add
To Musk's and Trump's enjoyment.
Our health's in greater jeopardy;
Our safety's less secure.
If we don't fight, however will
Democracy endure?
If you love America,
Speak up! Make a fuss!
No for tyranny! Yes for freedom!
March along with us!
