LET KINDNESS RULE

Why Let those PoliTicians Hose us All? Why Votr fer ANY Evil, AnyWay? Why Keep on Playin' Chicken, Dumb, an' Small? 'Cause If ya Do, it's DOWN yer Gonna Stay! It's Time we People Held our Heads Up High! It's Time that We threw Off the Cruel Yoke! Those PoliTicians Steal, and Kill, and Lie! And That's the Reason Why our Country's Broke!

WithOut the Rule of Love we All are Lost.

UnLess we Seek the Truth, we'll All be Blind! We Must git Right, and Never Count the Cost! And Don't it All come Down ta Bein' Kind? What do ya Have ta Say?
