Give Me Back My Fifteen Cents

歌詞

So the rent increase has got you down, and you can't afford to live in your own home town Well I bet everybody's feeling the same way Say you're feeling disconnected from the ground, private properties got you down Private properties got you shut out of your own world I was born here and I'm not going anywhere I was grown here and I'm not going anywhere This is my town, this is my ground, going to take it all back now And give it away to everybody Say your boss man had got you down, say her treats you like some kind of clown Say he treats you like he owns your soul Say the tax man has got you down, says he takes your money, leaves you sitting around Spends your money on bombs to promote peace and democracy I was born here . . . This land is their land, this land ain't our land It's based on greed and god and stealing people's land It's intimidation conquest and mutilation This land was stolen from you and me This land is their land this land ain't our land It was under the guardianship of the native american Who knew we belonged to the earth the EARTH DID NOT BELONG TO THEM We are merely guardians The other night dear as I lay sleeping I dreamt you held me in your arms But when I broke you were being tortured With concrete and cars and bombs
