UNANIMOUS CONSENT

by E. Shaun Russell

The following was inspired by L. Neil Smith's article on 'Unanimous Consent and the Utopian Vision'.

Wouldn't it be great
To wake up one day
And be able to say
"Things will go my way!"

Boy, that would be great!
And it is a possibility
If man could only see
Everyone has the ability

If everyone could see what they wanted to achieve
If everyone did what they always had meant
Though it may seem very hard to believe
We can have unanimous consent

Wouldn't it be great
To want to go far
Drive a really nice car
Be more than you are

Boy, that would be great!
To do what you want to do
Have a Utopia, too
For everyone and you

If everyone could see what they wanted to achieve
If everyone did what they always had meant
Though it may seem very hard to believe
We can have unanimous consent

Won't it be great!
When the future is here
And we'll all forfeit fear
For a forthcoming year!

Boy, that will be great!
We'll soon forget about the crime
And the government pantomime
From this obsidian time

If everyone could see what they wanted to achieve
If everyone did what they always had meant
Though it may seem very hard to believe
We can have unanimous consent

And it shall be done!
Open mind and clean slate
It will be great
Just you wait!
