lyrics
What is, what it is, what is?
Tell me what is…
A vote of confidence
vote of confidence
vote of confidence
It isn't ignorance, isn't impotence
nor is it prudence
We're still on the road
we're still on the fence
Blind trust, it isn't blind trust
What is, what it is, what is?
Tell me what is…
A vote of confidence
vote of confidence
vote of confidence
It isn't tainted by ambivalence
it isn't under the influence
Suspicion steals away our innocence
So take care, beware
of the 'trust me' calls from everywhere
What is, what it is, what is?
Tell me what is…
A vote of confidence
vote of confidence
vote of confidence
Where I can stand tall and strong
where I know where I belong
Cast that vote, sleep at night
a vote of confidence will feel alright
What is, what it is, what is?
Tell me what is…
A vote of confidence
vote of confidence
vote of confidence!
