Lyrics
Two Cheers for Moderation
(©1998 WDNeely)
VERSE
Two cheers for the level-headed
Who make the world go 'round
Please keep your voices down
Restrain your celebration
So much for the revolution
Long live the tried and true
One day it comes to you
A blinding revelation:
Two cheers for moderation!
BRIDGE
So calm, so cool
So understated
Let reason rule
Well modulated
VERSE
So much for the best intentions
So much for the higher ground
Show up and settle down
Your only true salvation
BRIDGE
Let us not swerve
Let us not wither
They also serve
Who stand and dither
VERSE
Lights out on the Grand Illusion
This is your brave new world!
Please keep those banners furled
Maintain your concentration
Two cheers for moderation!
Hip-hip hooray!
Hip-hip hooray!
