Democracy or Meritocracy...
that is the Question

Adolf Hitler - Promised glory to fools

The brute, the brute, the savage brute
He thinks he knows and speaks the truth
Sends his country down a destructive route
When he casts his vote: thats democracy...

The fool, the fool, the ignorant fool
Wasted on him was education and school
As he elects his kind to rule
Democracy lets this be

Some say a meritocracy should
Rule where only the wise would
Rule and the fools never could
Rise to rule and ruin us all...

The truth of it I do not know
But that not so long ago
Merit in that theory Germany did show
Whn Hitlers pride led to his nations fall...
