Talk, Moral Icon and Rally
Talk Talk
Legislators on TV
Talking and talking
Each vote a speech in the making
The session goes on and on
Talking and breaking wind in one
Tedium and Ad Nauseum
Time to get the TV remote
Only chance to smote
Some really stupid blokes
Moral Icon
The Moral icon on tv calling for people power
The Moral icon who caused the powerplants to expire And plunged Pilipinas into darkness inspired
The Moral icon who did not win a single court case
Nor solve the murder mystery of her late mate
The Moral icon who failed to free the peasants from their land
Is this the Moral icon of our land?
Rally! Rally!
Rally! Rally! on the Street
Against all alleged cheats
A call to arms! A call to arms!
Is this right or is it wrong?
Honestly I cannot say
We tried We tried
Yes We tried it twice
But twice our hopes were sliced
Betrayed by leaders who were not contrite
So what is the point of doing it again and again
Rightist reasons and leftist cause all the same
The high purpose may vary but goal is one
Power to a few chosen
Deals to be made
Pawns again and again
Cannon fodder again and again
To be used again and again
To be abused again and again
To be fooled again and again

The problem is that the Moral Icon may end up holier than thou.
