If Your Prime Minister

 

If your prime minister lied

Backwards and forwards,

Would you support him?

Would that be a good example

For the young people in our lives?

 

If your prime minister accepted

Eavesdropping and taping of a private

Telephone conversation - its release

To the nation,

Would you support him?

Would that be a good example

For the young people in our lives?

 

If your prime minister instigated

Deceitful, vicious, demeaning, personal

Verbal attacks when confronted,

Would you support him?

Would that be a good example

For the young people in our lives?

 

If your prime minister broke

The very law he enacted,

Would you support him?

Would that be a good example

For the young people in our lives?

 

If your prime minister fanned

The flames of dissention and division,

Would you support him?

Would that be a good example

For the young people in our lives?

 

If your prime minister hid

Behind the skirts of the governor general

When called to task by his peers,

Clung to her skirts until she gave

Him the key to lock up your democracy,

Would you support him?

Would that be a good example

For the young people in our lives?
