Protest! Protest! Protest! 歌詞

Back in the radical sixties It was hippies and tambourines It was mud and nudity It was gigs in fields of green It was a changing society And that was cool, but these are different times Miracles happen by the hour Science can make a flower And the people got the power So cheer up and don't be dour My angry friend! All you wanna do is Protest! Protest! Protest! Could you be more introspective? Protest Protest! Protest! It's only you that's suspect That negative attitude will get you nowhere… I know it must have been easy When everyone was ready to shout There was much to complain about Just get the guitar out It was "Nixon And Agnew Out!" Or whatever, but attitudes have changed And we're happy in the herd Now the enemy's blur Prick us and we purr It's time to choose your words A bit more wisely All you wanna do is Protest! Protest! Protest! Could you be more introspective? Protest Protest! Protest! It's only you that's suspect That negative attitude will get you nowhere Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere Just look at the world around you We have what we are fighting for I mean lotteries and more And the rest is best ignored Cos there's much more fun in store After these messages, You're free to sing your song But watch the things you say No negativity today For the times they have a-changed And then they've a-changed back again And we barely noticed All you wanna do is Protest! Protest! Protest! Could you be more introspective? Protest Protest! Protest! It's only you that's suspect That negative attitude will get you nowhere Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
