David Rudder: Requiem For Miss ‘D’ TOP
I am here to announce, the passing of this grand old lady/
Ms Egalitaria Justicina Democracy/
Some people says she died, right here in this country/
I don't know 'bout that, but raise your hand if you agree
Chorus
Democracy....if all politicians could see/
How great thou art
They say the lady died in Peru and Sierra Leone/
And in that European land, where the Yougo is still a car/
So many criminals have tried to kill her in our region/
But if you recognise them beasts, make sure that they don't get far
Chorus (repeat)
Bridge
Well listen people now don't you linger/
I want you to flash up your voting finger/
Jump around jump around jump around and celebrate/
Thank you for letting me be myself/
Thank you for letting me free myself/
Again again and again and again oh yeah/
A little Cuban boy...(illegal Elian)....got caught up in a sea of people/
And we big people we tried so hard to take his innocence away/
My little tale of joy, didn't happen in whipping-boy Havana/
But in Miami, inna the good old USA/
Chorus
Democracy....now if only Miami could really see/
How great thou art/
Instead they chose...to abuse the boy and the good old lady/
How great thou art (repeat)
Now the Road March race
.....talking 'bout this boy Iwer/
Some people say he too damn greedy/
Well maybe, I don't know/
But....he demonstrated his right to express his feelings/
And he proved that the Carnival judging
Is just one big pappyshow.
Chorus
Democracy/
...it take a kaisonian to show everybody/
how great thou art/
But Iwer George did you pay the courts
their fifty grand already/
How great thou art (repeat)
Finally,
A word of warning to the West Indies Board of Cricket/
How come the players leave the game/
more bitter than they're sweet/
I know you're working real hard/
but you're still batting on a sticky wicket
Don't want to see no more Antiguans/
cussing through St John's streets/
Chorus
Democracy....I hope the Board will see
How great thou art (repeat)
And to the fans/
.....you/ve got to get rid of all this insularity/
How great thou art (repeat)
