songwriter's roundtable submission for "French Revolution" theme
lyrics
Liberty!
Yeah, that’s for me.
Liberty!
Gonna set me free.
So you find yourself, in a bind
And you’ld really like to, speak your mind.
Why don’t people, let me be?
What will it take, for them to see?
I’ve got the right to be free
And stand on my own two feet!
Liberty!
Yeah, that’s for me.
Liberty!
Gonna set me free.
So you’re the victim, of a crime.
They’re taking more, and more each time.
Why don’t they let me, live in peace?
Will the tyranny, ever cease?
In every time, in every place
We’ve got to stand for the human race!
Liberty!
Yeah, that’s for me.
Liberty!
Gonna set me free.
All the citizens, being equal in the eyes of the law, are equally admissible to all public dignities, places, and employments, according to their capacity and without distinction other than that of their virtues and of their talents…
Liberty!
Yeah, that’s for me.
Liberty!
Gonna set me free.
Liberty!
Yeah, that’s for me.
Liberty!
Gonna set me free.
