Is it firepower and force?
Of course it's not,
Or WMDs wouldn't be an issue,
For any of you,
Is it ability to pay?
Depends on a few things I'd say,
Like minimum wage,
And homes for every citizen,
Opportunity with optimism,
And a safety net for all,
Healthcare is a must,
Provided for in trust,
That the doctors and nurses are trained,
And decently paid,
What makes a nation great?
Law and order makes a claim,
Safety is a must,
Knowing when enough is enough,
And having the guts,
To solve the problem,
Not just brush it to one side,
Say sod them,
And hope it goes away,
But it's more than just this,
Or we'd not mind the fascists,
As much as we do,
So it's about living fearlessly,
Confident to go and be,
Who ever we were born to be,
And as long as we stay clean,
You're welcome in a great country.
