gaye adegbalola – nothing’s changed كلمات اغاني

sit-ins and picket lines for civil rights
dogs and water hoses, crosses burning in the night
it was down in mississippi, emmett till was lynched
now down in texas, james byrd was dragged and ditched
james byrd, james byrd a righteous name i know
just change that james to jim and the byrd is still a crow

change, change nothing has changed
change, change nothing has changed
change, change nothing has changed
change, change nothing has changed

washed and ironed all the white folks clothes
nursed their babies, now she works in nursing homes
had to be twice as good to get half a chance
still fired first and hired last
they talk about a gl-ss ceiling, but don’t you know
she’s down on her knees on a concrete floor

change, change nothing has changed

landless against the landlord at home or abroad
nothing’s really changed for what it’s worth
got you coming, got you going–it’s all based on greed
you rent-to-own and the interest makes you bleed
used to buy from the master at the company story
now call it master card–it’ll keep the people poor

change, change nothing has changed
change, change nothing has changed
change, change nothing has changed
change, change nothing has changed

how can i be angry?
there’s been some change it’s true
too slowly in my lifetime, there’s much more we can do
anytime a child is hungry
anytime there’s homeless men
anytime there is no doctor
and there is no medicine
anytime there’s ethnic cleansing
anytime there’s genocide
anytime there is a hate crime
and freedom’s been denied

change, change nothing has changed
change, change nothing has changed
change, change nothing has changed
change, change nothing has changed

anytime there is a war
and religious persecution
a shepherd or diallo
so called accidental shootings
anytime there is a ghetto
anytime a reservation
anytime you meet up face to face
with discrimination
how can i be angy?
there’s been some change, it’s true
too slowly in my lifetime
there’s so much more to do
. . . . there’s so much more to do
gotta make a change
gotta make a change now
one by one now
two by two now
gotta make a change.
