Lyrics

Across the darkened city The frosty searchlights creep Alert for the first marauder To steal a hummus heap We see the sudden headlines Float on the buttery tide We hear them warn and threaten And wonder what they hide Then whispers across tables Talks in a shuttered room The price on which they bargain Will be a people's doom There is a roar of war in the factories An idle dance on the street And a roar of hell in the back streets By the thud of marching feet Now since the sun of shooting The shadows grow in tone Of the big bosses plotting Their biggest coup Is there not a strength to save us No power we can trust Before our lives and liberties Are pounded into dust Time to arise democracy Time to rise up and cry At what our fathers fought for We'll not allow to die Time to resolve divisions Time to renew our pride Time to resolve divisions Time to renew our pride Time to resolve divisions Time to renew our pride Time to resolve divisions Time to renew our pride Time to resolve
