Capitulation

If you love Carly Simon's "Anticipation" as much as I do, sing the tune with me! I've made new words to express my frustration with media's capitulation.

We can never know about the storm to come

But we know it will come anyway

And I wonder if we really will survive

Cuz I’m longin’ after some better day

Capitulation, capitulation

It’s gettin’ so late

And why are we waitin’

And I tell you how angry I feel about the press

They’re cavin’ and payin’ all that dough

And oh, the networks seem to just bend the knee

And I am thinkin’ about how wrong our prez is now

Capitulation, capitulation

It’s gettin’ so late

And why are we waitin’

Cuz tomorrow we might not have a nation

I’m no prophet but I do know fascists’ ways

So let’s all work and raise our voice for freedom

And fight for right ‘cause we love democracy

And fight for right ‘cause we love democracy

(We love democracy!)

(We love democracy!)

(We love democracy!)

(We love democracy!)
