HERE WE GO AGAIN RUNNING AWAY
Here we go again running away from the bogey men.
It's the 12th of July..
Well, we call it going on holiday.
But really we're just running down that old hoary road
Digging in, hoping it will all go away.
Problem is whist we are running others have created a plantation
When we stop running what have we got?
Not a lot. It's all owned by the planters
Lets stop running, plant a litte bit of grass for ourselves
We don't got a lot of room to get about in
We call this our land. No you can't.
We planted that bit a long time ago
Plantation owners not liking our assertion of rights.
Problem is there's no one to turn to. Nobody can help
We're out on that treadmill running, running
Going on holiday. The rest are entrenched
Not for moving, declaring No surrender
We shall not be moved so here we are On holiday
Leaving behind the plantation owners.
