SELL OUT / LEVELLING THE LAND
Am C G Am
The year is 1991. it seems that freedoom´s s dead and gone
C G
The power of the rich is held by few
Am C G Am
Keep the young ones paralyzed, educated by your lies
C G (same same the whole song)
Keep the old ones happy with the news
Tell the singer not to sing his song
Tell the poet that she´s wrong
and in the courts you´ll win the case with lies
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 they say
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)
