In the of 1979
In the wake of Britain's "Winter of Discontent"
Margaret Thatcher's Conservative Party
Won a victory
The Iron Lady took the helm of a fading Britain
The sick man of Europe
As it had come to be known
But she refused to accept that decay
Was inevitable
And that the job of the British governmen
Was to decline
Britain, should believed, could do better
"Some socialists seem to believe
That people should be in a state computer
We believe they be individuals
We're all unequal
No one, thank heavens, is quite like anyone else
However much the socialists
May pretend otherwise
And we believe that everyone
Has the right to be unequal
But to us
Every human being is equally important"
And she had no shortage of critics
"The Minister is aware that
I detest every one of her policies
And I have never that fact"
"I the Honorable Gentleman knows
That I have the same contempt
For his socialist policies
As the the people of east Europe
Who have experienced them..."
She was secure in her faith
That her conservative was right
"One of the great debates of our time
Is about how of your money
Should be by the state
And how much you should keep
To spend on family
If the state wishes to spend more
It can do so only by your savings
Or by taxing you more
And it's no good thinking someone else will pay
That someone is you"
She knew Ronald Reagan knew
That free markets and a free people
Are the defense against tyranny
And peace comes through strength
Not accommodation
"Mr. Speaker
Wars are not caused
By the build-up of weapons
They are caused an aggressor
Believes he can achieve his objectives
At an acceptable price"
America now stands at a crossroads
One path leads to deficits
Decreasing influence and decline
The other a renewed American dream
We all want
"Mr. Chairman
People want to live in peace
Real lasting peace
The peace comes
independence of the state
And being to run your own life
Spend your own money
And make your own choices
And, above all
The peace of a country
is properly defended
Against any potential adversary"
As we stock of our choices
The legacy of Britain's Lady
Remains a steadfast guide
