Out in the wilderness
No calls came
They're putting sandbags at the door
They're bringing all the boats to the shore

For all the assistance
They've been given
The money never has appeared
It gets lost beneath the gears
It hasn't trickled down in years

No motion carried
We've failed again
We've only got ourselves to blame

Who can they look to
To have on their side
Two hundred years and nothing's changed

We already knew the answer
What a waste of time
The hill has become a mighty climb

No motion carried
We've failed again
We've only got ourselves to blame

Who can they look to
To have on their side
Two hundred years and nothing's changed
