A Few Honest Words
Ben Sollee

If you’re going to lead my country,nIf you’re gonna say it’s freenI’m gonna needna little honestynnJust a few honest wordsnIt shouldn’t be that hardnJust a few honest wordsnIs all I neednnI don’t need no handshakenNo firm look in the eyenDon't tell me what you think I, nI ought to hearnnI don’t need no high lifenNo fancy premiersnJust tell me what you really thinknWithout fearnnJust a few honest wordsnIt shouldn’t be that hardnJust a few honest wordsnIs all I neednnLove is a bitter foodnYou’ve learned to eatnYou still don’t know, oh, nWhere it growsnnAnd our love of freedomnHolds a veil over our eyesnRights that are givennCan be taken awaynnJust a few honest wordsnIt shouldn’t be that hardnJust a few honest wordsnIs all I neednnWe don’t choose our leadersnThe choose themselvesnTell me againnAbout democracy
