We, the people
We, the people, as whole
Create a hole
In system
And reach the stem
Find lacuna or loop
Then cleverly swoop
To offer bribe
And silently describe
The deal is complete
There is nothing to compete
The market is open to loot
You have set your foot
The soldiers are provided weapons
With inferior designs
The life is involved
But it is dealt by wolves
Our own people
As we call human
Go for greed with cheap means
How a war on poverty can be won?
We are by the people, of the people and for the people
No bad governance should trouble
As we ask more and more
We should be prepared therefore
