Freedom (What Freedom)

You may wake up one morning and your life’s been took away
And you may think back on memories and dreams of yesterday
And you may think life is okay and you just keep struggling on
but your freedoms being stolen so wake up before it’s gone

They’re taking our freedom away
They’re stealing your freedom today
They’re taking our freedom away
So listen closely to what I say

The words that you are saying could be taken as a crime
They’re even finding faults now, with the words in nursery rhymes
One group can’t sell their records, for the law is on their backs
Well we’re all be mindless prisoners if we don’t start fighting back

They’re taking our freedom away
They’re stealing your freedom today
They’re taking our freedom away
So listen closely to what I say

The T.V. and the papers, keep on saying it’s alright
But they’re controlled by the reapers of the dawn and endless night
And you may think I’m exaggerating and look down to the floor
But you’ll realise and raise your eyes as they’re kicking down your door
