You Can (Mass Trespass, 1932) |
For all those feet in ancient times |
For stepping out of line |
Dragging time and tide |
Against the keepers of the past |
The flags of class and caste |
Limp upon the mast |
All your week you were someone’s slave |
Today you’re a free man |
If they tell you you can’t |
Then you can |
You can, you can, you can |
You can, you can |
Walking high upon the hills |
Rough-shod against well-heeled |
A butterfly breaks upon the wheel |
A compass and a cap |
A sing-song and a scrap |
A dotted line across the map |
All your week you were someone’s slave |
Today you’re a free man |
If they tell you you can’t |
Then you can |
You can, you can, you can |
You can, you can |
Every five-barred gate my home |
A place to call my own |
Stone to boundary stone |
For every footprint on the land |
The banners and the banned |
Who swayed the best-laid plans |
All your week you were someone’s slave |
Today you’re a free man |
If they tell you you can’t |
Then you can |
You can, you can, you can |
