歌词
I came into politics, heaven knows why
I suppose I knew something was going awry
I'm really not one to stand up to be heard
In fact, to be honest, I would have preferred
To sit on my sofa, to pull down the blind
But sometimes you cannot remain unaligned
It's almost embarrassing here to confess
The Apathy Party is such a success
♪
The slogan that all of the Party preferred
"The less that you shout, then the more you'll be heard!"
Was lampooned by most of the popular press
The truth is that most of us couldn't care less
We watched as the combatants took up the fight
From the lunatic left to the swivel-eyed right
And there without strategy, tactic or plan
The march of our Apathy Party began
♪
Whilst most other parties take positive stands
The Apathy Party will sit on its hands
I think we can say that we have to conclude
We simply latched on to the popular mood
Our greatest success is of course - and I quote
"Sixty percent never bother to vote!"
If you weren't so dogged and didn't persist
The Apathy Party could never exist!
♪
So thank you again, and for coming today
There aren't many here; that's the Apathy way!
Try to confront without being forthright
The critics who say that we're policy-light
It's really not true, and indeed it's unjust
The Apathy Party is a byword for trust!
And that's why so many respond to our call
To sit on the fence and say "Bugger them all!"
