Aphonia

Gagged and bound
Democracy, more or less, lost - never to be found
Today, jubilant supporters went to town
To celebrate an underhand victory - hands down

I'm against two-legged frogs
Who jumped at whatever bait en bloc
Shameful ones don't represent us
But a manifestation of our fears

People fear a government with a torn moral fabric
With only enough fibres to cover it's nakedness
It's sad that the people fell victim to the antic
Powerless and dumb, a government not established by ballot boxes

The Ruler of the state has spoken
And I only to keep quiet and listen
To them that are affected today
Bite the bullet and fight another day.
