Rockland |
Hold back the edges of your gowns |
You asked for hell — elected clowns |
With no dissent for how things are |
Or gently pushed beneath a car |
Our leaders are assassin’s friends |
And we aren’t needed for their ends |
No industry or open wars |
They cut health care and lock the doors |
But I’m with you if you’re with me |
Take my hand |
I’m with you in Rockland |
I’m with you in Rockland |
And don’t it make you wanna howl? |
So, where’s the champion of Mary Queen O’Scots? |
And liberty and chivalry? |
To damn the MI5 for C.N.D |
I need someone with a memory |
Of what we used to mean by morally |
And all we can find is old Jack Ruby |
When the victor rewrites history |
The napalm lights his vanity |
I’m with you if you’re with me |
Take my hand |
I’m with you in Rockland |
I’m with you in Rockland |
And don’t it make you wanna howl? |
Josephine, the singer called |
She made a comeback in the psychiatric ward |
Where the shock is mightier than the sword |
And the adverts obscure the blackboard |
And chalk is something we can’t afford |
And the only class is how to be bored |
But my hopes are still on the soul horse |
This is my Woody for president waltz |
'Cause I’m with you if you’re with me |
Take my hand |
I’m with you in Rockland |
I’m with you in Rockland |
And don’t it make you wanna howl? |
I’m with you in Rockland |
I’m with you in Rockland |
And don’t it make you wanna howl? |
