Chorus: Come on let’s vote – we have the right
We’ve got the freedom – no need to fight
There is a purpose – democracy
Don’t get defeated, by apathy
Come on let’s vote
Now people round the world have fought for ages
To have a say in how their lives are run
We’ve pushed against the despots and dictators
Let’s celebrate the freedom that we’ve won
Remember women in the UK only got the vote in 1928
18 year olds only got it in 1969
Not every African American got it until 1965
We’ve got it – let’s use it!
Don’t be like Russell Brand – get out and vote
It’s easy to see why people get cynical
With all the games that politicians play
But the democratic process is so critical
So get out there and vote on polling day
Or
But many people still suffer oppression
Their rulers run the country for themselves
They can’t speak out the way they really want to
Cos if they do they’re locked in prison cells
