People-power’s proven very powerful when exercised
As was the case to thwart the House’s Ethics Office exorcise
When people by the millions strongly disagreed with its demise
The Congress heard the people and chose not themselves to jeopardize
There is a lesson lurking here for Democrats to cogitate
A way that works when policies proposed they know they must negate
That Democrats at local levels organize, participate
Use social networks, telephones, join rallies, and go demonstrate
Do not partake of helplessness and sit there and commiserate
The time is now to fight against the bills you cannot tolerate
It’s people power all together that can save the county’s fate
By sending Trump a grassroots message: we will keep this country great
