lyrics

There goes a question, it has me up in arms, well may we say my foil is with whom? When the public thunder, the guns stay silent, but this adage can be inverted too.

It ain’t necessary to belabour the point, for we are not burdened by a servile character. What’s that you said, oh, to be sure you have a healthy disrespect for authority.

Sing me of the lay of the land,
We can take care of ourselves,
We don’t need those of finer clay.

Let’s not beat our chests too loudly about, our eyes may be in the heavens but our feet are still in the muck. If we organise together, help each other out, change will come like a thief in the night.

One could quip that politics is a shadow cast by big business on society. The party line is always moving in a circle, for they don’t differ but in name.

Sing me of the lay of the land,
We can take care of ourselves,
We don’t need those of finer clay.

We will not go on behaving
Like the audience at the very play
Of which we are the actors.
