If They Come for You in the Night

anonyme


Text anonymous (≤1981). Tune : « ? ».


1
If they come for you in the night
Then they will come for me in the morning
So we must stand together and fight
We don’t need no other warning
I am finished with sitting on the fence
To fight is my best defence
Ill find you when the walls fall.
 
2
If they break your mind in jail
Then they will break my heart in passing
So we must struggle on win or fail
’Cause it’s us they’re bashing and gassing.
Revolution is just pie up in the sky
Here in hell we only fry
I’ll find you when the walls fall.
 
3
We can hear you crying at night
No matter where they build their Katingals
Can you hear us demanding the right
To raise the jails, let the prisoners mingle
Utopia is not around the bend
But I’ll be damned I will not bend
Pll find you when the walls fall.
