Come the Tyrant

"He who allows oppression shares the crime." Desiderius Erasmus

COME THE TYRANT

A tyrant comes to take the land

He leads the people by the hand

With punishment or threats and lies

To oppress the people he surely tries

He sucks prosperity through straws of taxes

To put more people in menial classes

He socially levels to lower status

He throws more regulations at us

Whoever will stand to watch it still

The oppression of people of their free will

Without lifting a finger or spending a dime

Is equally guilty of the socialist's crime

To turn a cheek or pull a punch

To abandon the citizens in a crunch

It is our elected reps we should indict

If they all surrender without a fight
