Liberate Me for New Year's Eve |
While every rich son of a bitch |
is just getting richer |
And the poor battered Cubs |
have lost another good pitcher |
While the fundamentalist fringe |
lends its voice to the president |
And the poor sink deeper |
into disenfranchisement |
While the heirs of Joe McCarthy |
whine «witch hunt» without flinching |
And save a ward of white power |
from «a high-tech lynching» * |
While their pet «uppity black» |
strikes a pose and prays |
And a lotta real uppity blacks are |
spinning in their graves |
Take my hand… Take my arm |
Take my kiss… Make me warm |
And liberate me for New Year’s Eve |
While the clothes have no emperor |
and image is the only noise |
While boys still make the rules |
and girls are back to being toys |
Save a soft place for me |
under your skin |
Gimme shelter in your heart |
In your flesh, deep in sin, a place to hide in |
And all I want for Christmas |
is to wrap you up |
And make you |
my sweater and my tie |
Then I' Il be your shiny new chemistry set |
and stuff your stocking with my heart |
once more before we die |
So take my hand… Take my arm |
Take my kiss… Make me warm |
And liberate me for New Year’s Eve |
While Brando buys an island |
just to be free |
All I need is for you |
to make love to me |
If only once a year |
then let it be |
At the end and the beginning on |
New Year’s Eve |
Take my hand… Take my arm |
Take my kiss… Make me warm |
And liberate me for New Year’s Eve |
Don’t let this harvest go to seed |
For want of that miracle deed |
That sweetest reason to believe |
Oh liberate me for New Year’s Eve. |
