lirik lagu muddy summers and the dirty field whores - what do we tell our children?
[verse 1]
my grandfather was a travelling man
selling potions all across this land
free to roam, to survive
a man who knew what it felt to be alive
i know my heart shares the same fire
and liberty my one desire
i’m bound by the chains of the rich man’s law
the likes i’ve never known before
[chorus]
when we cannot stand for our beliefs without brutality
when we fear to voice opinions against their totality
when we’ve nothing and they strip what’s left beyond all dignity
what do we tell our children about freedom?
[verse 2]
i grew up in a simple country home
from morn to dusk, free we would roam
no~one ever asked where we had been
what we did or what we dared to dream
but in the now, to do the same
bring stop~and~search, surveillance, and watch your bl~~dy game
and the valleys and woods we wandered in
are now concrete and neon and ripe for fracking
[chorus]
when our stunning countryside is nothing more than a faulty graph
when our every move is monitored to see we’re on their path
when no thought is ever given to the aftermath
what do we tell our children about freedom?
[outro]
when we can stand for our beliefs without fear of brutality
when we shout enough and destroy their totality
when we need nothing they sell to buy our dignity
then we won’t tell our children about freedom
i don’t wanna have to tell my children about freedom
