Imagine - No Liberals
http://voicesofthenation.com/imagine-no-liberals/
Imagine there’s no Liberals
It’s easy if you try
No bloated government
To regulate and pry,
Imagine all the people keeping what they earn…
Imagine no corruption
It isn’t hard to do,
Imagine no GroupAction
And no Jack Layton too
Imagine all the people living life in peace…
Imagine there’s no Charter
I wonder if you can,
No need for legal plunder
And no Adscam
Imagine all the people competing to succeed…
