Voting doesn't work, 1-2-3 

It's time you know your enemy 

I won't pledge allegiance to hypocrisy

Your democracy, is not for me 

So when we try to change this place

Courtroom pulls an about face 

Fantasies of the master race

Our elections they erase 

See once upon a time we were all free 

When we lived in tribal societies

Peace, peace and harmony 

And everything for the good of family 

Yeah cancer people can't smoke weed 

People voted to be free 

But the facist rule decree

Pigs arresting you and me 



(chorus) 

Voting doesn't work. why?

When they don't like what we say, then they stop it in the courts 

Voting doesn't work. why?

When they don't like what we say, then they stop it in the courts 

Voting doesn't work. why?

When they don't like what we say, then they stop it in the courts 

Voting doesn't work. why?

When they don't like what we say, then they stop it in the courts 



President this, president that 

Represent the ruling class 

One says this (this) one says that (that)

Sounds the same, what choice is that 

See, voting doesn't work 1-2-3 

Coming from the nation of the Cherokee 

How can you choose when you don't have a choice 

How can you choose when you don't have a voice 

Yeah, interest games, their interest rates

Secret power fueled by hate (hate)

Fear for cash

Cash for fear 

Greenspan is the ruler here

Yeah, a pig is a pig

And they took it away 

And I don't give a fuck about the things they say 

It don't mean shit to me 

Voting doesn't work it's easy to see that



Voting doesn't work. why?

When they don't like what we say, then they stop it in the courts 

Voting doesn't work. why?

When they don't like what we say, then they stop it in the courts 

Voting doesn't work. why?

When they don't like what we say, then they stop it in the courts 

Voting doesn't work. why?

When they don't like what we say, then they stop it in the courts 



Voting doesn't work I have seen 

Along with piles of broken treaties 

Your reality produces poverty, spiritually in a nation of greed 

Well, who is working, who is not

Think votes count, well I think not 

Doesn't matter what we say 

Things will always go their way 

Power to the people is just a fantasy

And they sell to us as an american dream 

Power to the people is just a fantasy

And they sell to us as an american dream 

Well your vote counts 1-2-3

Living in democracy 

Everybody here is free 

'Cause it's built for you and it's built for me 



Voting doesn't work, why 

When they don't like what we say they stop it in the courts 

Voting doesn't work, why 

When they don't like what we say they stop it in the courts 

Voting doesn't work, why 

When they don't like what we say they stop it in the courts 

Voting doesn't work, why 

When they don't like what we say they stop it in the courts
