作曲 : White | |
There's a farmer in a distant country working on the land | |
A hat upon his head and a shovel in his hand | |
Till the soil, plant the seed, wait a while, cut the leaf | |
And send another cup of tea to me | |
I'm a spoiled child of the Great Imperialist State | |
I cannot kill my meat nor grow the food upon my plate | |
I never walked a mile to the well, | |
when the tap runs dry, do tell | |
What will become of you and me | |
What will become of us, who will give us trust | |
Will you believe me, when I say I never loved profiting from your pain | |
That I felt shame, when I looked the other way | |
Woke up this morning, the revolution knocking down my door | |
Those capitalist pigs? No, they don't live here anymore | |
Slipped out the back door into my car | |
How far can you drive, how far | |
There's a farmer in a distant country working on the land | |
Food turned into flowers for the uptown florist stand | |
What you saved another paid to turn his soil into sand | |
The world will not deliver on demand | |
What will become of us, who will give us trust | |
Will you believe me, when I say I never loved profiting from your pain | |
That I felt shame, when I looked the other way |
