Power To The People

[jw5]

Was this phrase coined by JBJ?
I like it, it exudes a strong sense of democracy, active citizenry, and reminds those in power that the government and civil servants work for the country and the people, not the other way around.
It should be used as a manifesto for opposition party objectives and strategies.
Unfortunately, the typical Singkieporean doesn't understand or can't be bothered to understand this.

Since most "people" are absolute morons, the concept of "power to the people" is a very dangerous proposition.

Most of these people were not born morons.
They evolved after being brainwashed.

Power To The People, as far back as I can recall, was first coined by John Lennon.


Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on

Say you want a revolution
We better get on right away
Well you get on your feet
And out on the street

Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on

A million workers working for nothing
You better give 'em what they really own
We got to put you down
When we come into town

Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on

I gotta ask you comrades and brothers
How do you treat you own woman back home
She got to be herself
So she can free herself

Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on
Now, now, now, now

Oh well, power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on

Yeah, power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on

Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people, right on

I would let the politicians do their job.
