We Are the People

Puppets in the dance are we Or do we call the tune Were keeping up our ratings While we feed you wreck and ruin Thespians of revolution, money in the bank With our college boy lisps Brown ale gurus sunday supplement priests Lunch with urban guerillas On expense account receipts Opinionated interviews From an informed source Cant tell you no names Secret of course We are the people I am you, you are me We are the people, I am you, you are me Any fool can see all the people We are the people Were on the side of politicians Misquote their lies Building up those favors We collect on bye and bye On the side of winners We can change with the fees Give us your proposition Were only here to please We are the people I am you, you are me We are the people I am you, you are me Any fool can see all the people We are the people Oh, please defend me Dont ask for my surrender We are the kings, youre the pretenders You walk and Ill talk Stop ringing my doorbell with questions Subscribe--view us--listen to us Weve got the plan Weve got all the answers And weve got your man We can change the format If the sales go down And we got girls for everyone Yellow, pink or brown We are the people..............chorus to fade (mccafferty/agnew) (copyright 1980 ciroride/strickrope ltd.)
