Change The Tune by The Green Party of England and Wales Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2015

CHANGE THE TUNE

The Green Party. Some people like to say we’re a wasted vote. But there are far more that know better - with more members than the Lib Dems or UKIP, our policies have struck a chord with people

They’ve realised that the only wasted vote is a vote you don’t believe in. And that there’s only one party that stands by its beliefs. While every other party seems so similar, it’s like they’re in
Harmony...

INTRO
Have you ever wondered
Why I sound just like my deputy?
Does he seem redundant
Or do I? (Oh baby)
Step into the booth
Look down and face the truth:
A vote for me’s the same as a vote for
Any of us guys (Any of us guys)

CHORUS
It’s sweeter when we all agree
A party political harmony
Lose your voting inhibitions
Join the one true coalition (coalition)
VERSE 1
He’ll fire all your docs and nurses
He’ll clamp down on public service
He sold the railways to companies
And we all agree on tuition fees!
Let’s sell off the parts of this broken nation
Let’s shut the door on immigration
And if a few companies don’t pay tax, (tax!)
Let’s not grumble, what’s the harm in that?
(there’s no harm, baby!)

Austerity!
Austerity!
Austerity!
Let’s get rid of foreigners!

VERSE 2
Let’s frack this green and pleasant land
Come on Eddie, join the band
(Come on, Eddie!);
The public won’t know what to do
If they have to pick from me and youuuuuuu!
The choice between us couldn’t be clearer
Oxford! Cambridge! Diversity for ya
Whether it’s Trident or High Speed Two
The lesser of four evils is up to you
(I looove the coalition!)
CHORUS 2
It’s sweeter when we all agree
A party political harmony (vote for me!)
Make the tactical decision
Join the one true coalition (coalition)

CHORUS 3
(even higher!)
It’s sweeter when we all agree
A party political harmony
Make the tactical decision
Join the one true coalition

Like it? It’s been number one for about two hundred years. But all over the country, people are standing up to change the tune. Voting true, not tactical

We believe in the people controlling politics, not the other way round.
We believe that the public should own public services

We believe that the country’s wealth belongs to the whole country, not a privileged few. And we believe the if the planet belongs to us all, it’s worth taking better care of

And this election, we’re in the strongest place we’ve even been to fight Austerity, return the railways and the NHS to public hands, scrap tuition fees and provide decent homes for everyone

So vote Green on the 7th of May. For the common good
