billy bragg - the buck doesn’t stop here no more كلمات الأغنية

long ago a land was built
to be a shining city on a hill
no kings, no aristocracy
just a belief in liberty

and the tale that they were told in school
always follow this golden rule
george washington and the cherry tree
truth will set the people free

but the truth is hard to take
when your livelihood’s at stake
better cover your mistakes
and the buck doesn’t stop here no more
the buck doesn’t stop here no more

and so all the people saw
that no one was above the law
they took pride in their democracy
all were equal, eventually

but equal rights means equal say
and some folk didn’t like the way
while their views were duly noted
come election time, they were out_voted
so they used intimidation
to preserve their domination
this is a christian nation
and the buck doesn’t stop here no more
the buck doesn’t stop here no more

with their god and their guns, what are they fighting for?
an all_american sharia law?
if the bible is the sole source of authority
then we’ve no use for democracy

if history teaches us one thing
never trust a man who would be king
who seeks all power for himself
to burnish his prestige and wealth

and a nation born in revolution
should know this offers no solution
for there can be no liberty
where one man rules with impunity

and the patriots have no shame
to them it’s all a game
they’ve always someone else to blame
and the buck doesn’t stop here no more
buck doesn’t stop here no more
the buck doesn’t stop here no more
the buck doesn’t stop here no more

- billy bragg
