New song for the people

 

Stand and deliver

You let them put the fear on you

Stand and deliver

But not a word you heard was true

But if there’s nothing you can say

There may be nothing you can do

 

Do you wanna be a free man

Or do you wanna be a slave?

Do you wanna be a free man

Or do you wanna be a slave?

Do you wanna wear these chains

Until you’re lying in the grave?

 

I don’t wanna be a pauper

And I don’t wanna be a prince

I don’t wanna be a pauper

And I don’t wanna be a prince

I just wanna do my job

Playing the blues for friends

 

Magna Carta, Bill of Rights

The constitution, what’s it worth?

You know they’re gonna grind us down

Until it really hurts

Is this a sovereign nation

Or just a police state?

You better look out, people

Before it gets too late

 

You wanna be your own driver

Or keep on flogging a dead horse?

You wanna be your own driver

Or keep on flogging a dead horse?

Do you wanna make it better

Or do you wanna make it worse?

 

Stand and deliver

You let them put the fear on you

Slow down the river

But not a word of it was true

If there’s nothing you can say

There may be nothing you can do

 

Stand and deliver

Stand and deliver

Dick Turpin wore a mask too
