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