Lyrics of Get out there and fight

The headlines are bold.
It's going our way.
Confidence rises
at the end of the day.

We begin to make plans.
Support keeps flowing in.
Excitement rises.
We are sure to win.

Do you have a gut feeling
of not being true?
Or is it just the time we're in.
What's the world coming to?

Are you feeling overwhelmed?
Is there something just not right?
Are you doing your fair share
or just staying out of sight?

The votes are being counted.
Results are getting close.
Debatable is the win
according to the polls.

Fear is in the mirror.
I'm beginning to see red.
Maybe I should turn off the T.V.
and go back to bed.

Do you have a gut feeling
of not being true?
Or is it just the time we're in.
What's the world coming to?

Are you feeling overwhelmed?
Is there something just not right?
Are you doing your fair share
or just staying out of sight?

Background.......

Why didn't I get more involved?
Was I afraid of the cost?
Can I accept the outcome now
and can the others who lost?

Anticipation is over.
People cheer or cry.
It's hard to pick up all the pieces
for those who just stood by.

Do you have a gut feeling
of not being true?
Or is it just the time we're in.
What's the world coming to?

Are you feeling overwhelmed?
Is there something just not right?
So do your fair share
and get out there and fight.
