The number of young people who didn't vote at all
Outnumbered those voting last election in total
If all the people who said "I don't do politics"
Joined the "all politicians are the same" cynics
They could hold our political future in their hands
And influence on June 8th what happens in these lands
If all those who said they like Jeremy Corbyn
Used their vote and voted for Labour he would win
If all who won't vote Labour 'cos they don't like him
Voted on policies not his personality
We could make stopping cuts a reality
We could save the NHS, reduce inequality
Lift those struggling to survive out of poverty
End zero hour contracts and earn a living wage
Stop disadvantage based on gender, race and age
Disability and sexual orientation
Make a stand against exploitation
Or neglect of the most vulnerable people
Build a society that's more just and equal
Invest in social and affordable homes
End the privatisation of buses and rail
Reverse welfare reforms like the bedroom tax
And to University tuition fees give the axe
Make education free not a privilege for the rich
Kick draconian Tory policies in the ditch
Halt cuts to jobs, services and communities
That are destroying lives, made with impunity
Stop austerity measures that are ideological
Reject the myths and lies that they're economical
If all the people who even though they know full well
These Tory cuts assign them to a living hell
But still in vox pops and polls, when asked will say
"I'm voting Tory cos I like Theresa May"
Would see that's just like turkeys voting for Christmas
It makes no sense at all, it's just ridiculous
If all those who say they're voting for May "because she's strong"
Would stop to realise you can be strong and wrong
That gentle and peaceful doesn't equal weak
That being real and caring doesn't make you a freak
If all the people voting on how you look not what you do
Looked at voting records rather than each leader's shoes
They'd see that Corbyn's stood up for us from time
That for decades of time he's had your back and mine
In communities not just in Parliament
Joining rallies and vigils for justice and peace
Stood on picket lines and protested on the streets
If elected Labour will invest in schools and education
- An old African proverb gives Corbyn inspiration
"It takes a village to raise a child" he says -
EMA and free school meals because it pays
To invest in the lives and futures of our children
This is what it's all about, the next generation
If all the people who say they won't vote, voted Labour
Encouraged their friend, colleague and neighbour
We could change the future life chances of young people
Build a society that's safe and is stable
Protect our rights and defend communities
Focus on building trust and hope and unity
If all the people who say "I don't really know"
Take the time to read the Labour manifesto
The undecided could be the people who decide
And together with those who "don't vote" turn the tide
If all those who don't, decided now that they will
We could move forward rather than standing still
Just imagine how empowered we could be
If we stopped thinking I and thought of we
