From the recording SOMETHING TO SAY
Every album needs a protest song, right? This one’s about poor Government from “populace pandering politicians” dedicated to managing media cycles and keeping up appearances. The ones who’ve never done an honest day’s work and seem to just squander taxpayer money on political whims. Wouldn’t it be great if as taxpayers, we could actually just say “NO” to the next political folly?!
Lyrics
WHAT IF, WHAT SO
Music and Lyrics by Savage Montage (2023)
Long term vision builds sustainable goals
Solid foundations build enduring roads
Great leaders don’t make popular calls
Why empower populace pandering politicians
Here today gone tomorrow, debt and deficit
Dubious merit or long term benefit
Squander our tax on political whim
Need Governance not another election
Well what if, and what so, what about ……what if we all say no?
Manage media cycles, keep up appearances
Steer public opinion, hang the consequence
Truth be known, system’s heading nowhere fast,
Let’s be careful our future don’t repeat the past
Well what if, and what so, what about ……what if we all say no?
SOLO
Mindless stupidity, compromise & nonsense
How about a little Utopian Indulgence?
Damn the poppy cutters federation of mediocrity
Benevolent dictatorship not such ridiculous folly
Well what if, and what so, what about ……what if we all say no?
