Sell Out 歌詞

The year is 1991, it seems that freedom's dead and gone The power of the rich is held by few Keep the young ones paralized, educated by your lies Keep the old ones happy with the news Tell the singer not to singthis song Tell the poet that she's wrong And in the courts you'll win the case with lines Cos you sold them down the river-o Do I belong to some ancient race I like to walk in ancient places These are the things that I can understand I don't believe in your modern way Don't care about the things you say Your policies have failed the test of time Cos you sold them down the river-o Now in a land not far away, there's men in prison because theysay The colour of your skin is not a question Did you rally to their side? No, you sat back and let them die I don't know how you get to sleep at night CHORUS Your money market goes round and round The pound goes up, the dollar goes down Another South American forest cut down You need the power for your new towns Cos you get scared when the night comes down Won't you tell me where it is that we are bound? CHORUS
