Change


Politics change things

We hear the Liberty Bell as it rings

It chimes, it tolls, it swings

America the Beautiful

 

But why is nothing better

Leaders promise change

in the name of a better tomorrow

America the Beautiful

 

It's always tomorrow

Not today

Today doesn't matter

It's already gone

America the Beautiful

 

I would change nothing

I simply persevere like Paul Revere

and the Founding Fathers

Who built this country on sweat and tears

Who were they? 

America the Beautiful
