| The Tyrant�s Plea What happens When democracy becomes tyranny With an unwilling tyrant? When a president is made a king Even though he refuses? When the people who worked so hard for independence Beg to be led by the hand, To be told what to do and what to think, To shirk their responsibilities? What would you do If you were that king? Would you weep for the people�s loss Or take advantage of it and control them? Their want for leadership stems From their unwillingness to work. Then I shall be their tyrant, And I shall make them mourn their loss. |
