Tasmin Archer

Here's the man whose voice speaks for everyone
and whose actions touch the lives of us all
he rose with energy and style
shake my hand, kiss my child
sway us all with your smile
he readily accepts acclaim
but soon forgets that he came
from the back streets like them
so we pray to the east
we pray to the west
and we see the gods of the new church
as they undertake their vow
tell me who can save us now?
save us from the lords of the new church
