Lyrics: Verse 1 – Legislative Up on Capitol Hill where the debates begin, Ideas hit the floor, now the votes roll in. Two houses in the room when the law gets made, Senate and the House, every voice in the shade. Write it down, pass it through, send it on the way, Lines turn to laws at the end of the day. If the people want change, this is where it starts, Building every rule line by line, part by part. Pre-Chorus Power split three ways so the balance stays right, Every branch watching in the same daylight. Chorus Three branches, one system holding the line, Write it, sign it, test it every time. No one runs the whole show alone, Power moves but the balance holds. Three branches, working in time, Different roles but the same design. Verse 2 – Executive Down at the desk where the pen meets the page, One signature can set the law in motion. Running the country, carrying it through, Making sure the plans become something we do. Leading the nation, keeping things clear, Agencies moving from year to year. If a law hits the desk, it's a moment of choice, Sign it into life or send it back with a voice. Pre-Chorus Every move measured, every step defined, No single hand holds all the lines. Chorus Three branches, one system holding the line, Write it, sign it, test it every time. No one runs the whole show alone, Power moves but the balance holds. Three branches, working in time, Different roles but the same design. Verse 3 – Judicial High in the court where the arguments rise, Every word weighed under careful eyes. Reading the law, asking what it means, Checking the rules behind the scenes. If a law goes too far or breaks the frame, The court can step in and call the game. Not writing the law, not running the state, Just making sure it stays constitutional and straight. Bridge Write the law. Run the law. Test the law again. Round and round the balance goes, That’s how the system holds. Final Chorus Three branches, one system holding the line, Write it, sign it, test it every time. Power moves but it won’t overflow, Every branch keeping watch below. Three branches, steady and strong, Different jobs but they all belong. 🎵 Channel: Study Anthems — Songs That Stick! #ushistory #executivebranch #legislativebranch #judicialbranch #usgovernment #middleschool #highschool #civics #socialstudies #government #studyanthems
