Talk about a lack of democratic choice!
I have reworked this vid to cater for criticism that the cartoons were too fast to read and hence some of the impact of the video was being lost - Shall be reworking the other "democracy" vid more in line with a music vid within the next two weeks.

Lyrics of Democracy

Democracy -- 1 Dec 2007

Democracy just ain't for me it fails time and again

The savior from apartheid brought a scourge all of its own

With power hungry autocrats on tickets to gain votes

Politicians promises building on false hopes

It's all self gain all compromise it's all about the take

The bigger cheque the faster car how much can I make

Forgotten fast the principles which put you where you are

The grass roots challenges they face now witnessed from afar

Show me a man uncompromised the nation at his heart

I bet you cannot find one don't know where to start

Corruption rules and money talks the scandals never stop

George Orwell yeah he got it right the pigs just won't give up

One regime to another only faces they have changed

But the selfish disposition and the greed they have remained

From Manto through to Zuma and Mbeki, Shaik Shabir

Aids cures to convictions oh dear oh dear oh dear

I am sure that old Madiba tears his clothes in vain

When he sees crime and corruption smear his old campaign

Show me a man uncompromised the nation at his heart

I bet you cannot find one don't know where to start

MIDDLE 8

Onions to cure aids

Showers wash away

Make money today

Vision fades to grey

We need rejuvenation need a new breed to come in

Leaders with some vision who can take it on the chin

People not removed from the country and its goals

Selfless moral warriors committed to their roles

Democracy just ain't for me it fails time and again

The savior from apartheid brought a scourge all of its own

With power hungry autocrats on tickets to gain votes

Politicians promises building on false hopes

Show me a man uncompromised the nation at his heart

I bet you cannot find one don't know where to start
