band of hope - if they come in the morning كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
they call it the law, apartheid, internment, conscription, partition and silence
it’s the law that they made to keep you and me where they think we belong
they live behind steel and bullet proof glass, machine guns and spies
and tell us who suffer the tear gas and torture that we’re in the wrong

[chorus]
no time for love if they come in the morning
no time to show fear or for tears in the morning
no times for goodbyes no time to ask why
and the wail of the siren is the cry of the morning

[verse 2]
the trade union leaders, the writers, the rebels, the fighters and all
and the strikers who fought with the cops at the factory gate
the sons and the daughters of unnumbered heroes who paid with their lives
and the poor folk whose class or creed or belief was their only mistake

[chorus]
no time for love if they come in the morning
no time to show fear or for tears in the morning
no times for goodbyes no time to ask why
and the wail of the siren is the cry of the morning

[verse 3]
they took away sacho, vanzetti, connolly and pearce in their time
they came for newton and seal and the panthers and some of their friends
in london, chicago, saigon, santiago, cape town and belfast
and all the places that never made the headlines the list never ends
[chorus]
no time for love if they come in the morning
no time to show fear or for tears in the morning
no times for goodbyes no time to ask why
and the wail of the siren is the cry of the morning

[verse 4]
the boys in blue are only a few of the everyday cops on their beat
the cid, branch men and their spies and informers, they do their job well
behind them the men who tap phones, take pictures and programme computers and file
and the ones who give the orders which tell them when to come and take you to a cell

[chorus]
no time for love if they come in the morning
no time to show fear or for tears in the morning
no times for goodbyes no time to ask why
and the wail of the siren is the cry of the morning

[verse 5]
so come all you people to give to your sisters and brothers the will to fight on
they say you get used to a war but that doesn’t mean the war isn’t on
the fish need the seas to survive just like your comrades do
and the death squad can only get to them if first they can get through to you

[chorus]
no time for love if they come in the morning
no time to show fear or for tears in the morning
no times for goodbyes no time to ask why
and the wail of the siren is the cry of the morning
no time for love if they come in the morning
no time to show fear or for tears in the morning
no times for goodbyes no time to ask why
and the wail of the siren is the cry of the morning

- band of hope
