The Voting Machine
Lyrics are at the front and centre of our music. 'The Voting Machine' is from our latest studio album STARLITE.ONE - incredibly relevant in the specter of the most important election in history
Suzy wrote the lyrics for this song at the beginning of 2023. Now, two weeks before one of the most important elections in history, it’s more relevant than ever. The Voting Machine represents democracy.
The video has had over 52K views on YouTube and today we released the track as a single on all streaming platforms. Enjoy and share - it’s important…
This dirty truth What do you want to believe? Out of your hands into the voting machine Just think about Think about mmmmm This filthy truth What do you want to believe? Putting your hands into the voting machine Just think about Think about mmmmm You can stick me in the ground Plant a cross for me Say that you were lost and found Save a soul for me You can try and take the hill Like a dead man walking Bribe me with a bill Keep it all The voting machine The voting machine The voting machine The voting machine This burning truth What do you want to achieve? Counting your hands into the voting machine Just think about Think about mmmmm Wave your placards in the air You can march for me Clap your hands as if you care Make a fool of me You can hide behind a wall Wear a mask for me You can fight another war For democracy Gonna cut you with a tax Like a razor blade Keep the corporations fat Gonna keep you laid Twist the law and break the strike Dictator calling The land of the free Keep it all The voting machine... If you want it then you have to promise me a future
Or pehaps…
