The phrases continue:
Hate and Venality
Destroy Morality,
Unfortunately we sing.
The Vein of Concern is tapped,
The Well of Truth is capped,
Our Nation’s Strength is sapped,
Allow Resistance ring.
They admonish the Handicapped,
Allow Resistance ring.Noble and honest people,
Our protest has merely begun,
Boldly we sing:
Deplore Indecency,
Abhor Dishonesty,
Restore Democracy,
Allow Resistance ring.
With Hands and Hearts untied,
Allow Resistance ring.
From ev’ry Glacier,
Allow Resistance circle!
