Lyrics
Having A Word
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I have learnt that equality
May not mean freedom,
And freedom
May not mean liberation,
You can vote my friend
And have no democracy.
Being together dear neighbour
May not mean unity,
Your oppresors may give you chances
But no opportunities,
And the state that you are in
May have its state security
Yet you may be stateless
Without protection.
You my friend do not have to follow your leader,
The government does not have to govern you,
Im telling you Mom, you are greater than the law
If you are just when the law is not.
You see, once you are aware that new Labour
Does not care for the old workers
You may also know that change
May not mean revolution,
Once you realise that old conservatives
Are running out of things to conserve
You may also know that all politicians suck the same.
Babylon must burn,
Burn Babylon, burn.
Politics is like dis,
Life is like dis.
Intelligence may not mean intelligent,
The news may not be new.
From where we are
To be awake
May not mean
To be concious.
