Freedom '91 |
It’s time to rebuilding Dresden, the great machines come a-rumbling in |
The desecration of the ruins and everything that might have been |
You showed me the square in the melting snow |
As the light was beginning to fade |
But your melancholy eyes betrayed you |
Just as you have been betrayed |
I get culture shock coming back to the west — I can feel the wicked sting |
I see the stores all glittering like idiot’s gold beckoning the innocents in |
The constructed face of a civilised world, complete cosmetic control |
But it’s not far back to the caves and the trees |
And soon it will be time to go |
Freedom? |
I don’t hear any more songs of freedom |
121st street and rising the western dream aspires |
The crack kings like to drive German cars and there’s children up for sale |
The streets are left scorched and barren |
There’s twenty-seven channels on the cable television |
Get gang murder hype from Tinseltown to sell a movie about Malcolm X |
But freedom? |
I don’t hear any more songs of freedom |
So pinned down and what do we get? |
A longer piece of rope for our cute little necks |
Sweet liberty and her faithlessness |
Freedom? |
I don’t hear any more songs of freedom |
