YOU NEVER NEED TO VOTE
By
James Bredin


There’s an important date some time in your future when you will die,
Those among us who may be old and sick may already know why,
But no one is allowed suicide in order to change that date,
But for those in great pain and sorrow, euthanasia could be great.



Holland, Switzerland and Oregon have changed but we’re not allowed,
In most polite societies it cannot be mentioned out loud,
Most priests, ministers and politicians are completely opposed,
Not questioned in Parliament because this subject is closed.



Neither do we have set-date elections and no one is appalled,
And we don’t have binding referendums or political recall,
Your call is very important to us so please stay on the line,
In our first past the post you don’t have to vote any time.
