A protest song written in response to a songwriter saying protesting is on the decline
We still march when our leaders
Take us down a road we know is wrong
We still fill the still air
With the words of protest songs
You think days where we believed in change
Are finally dead and gone
But we still march when our leaders
Take us down a road we know is wrong

You tell us about the protests
About the Americians and Vietnam
About how the world's changed
And how now we don't give a damn
The spirit of peace is crushed
Never to rise up again
But the spirit still waxes
Our desire for peace will never wane

We still march when our leaders
Take us down a road we know is wrong
We still fill the still air
With the words of protest songs
You think days where we believed in change
Are finally dead and gone
But we still march when our leaders
Take us down a road we know is wrong

The biggest march in the history
Of protest in this green and pleasant land
Occured when we went to war
Just to get oil for one evil man
The spirit was never broken
Our resolve just grew strong
So I hope you know when you say
We no longer care that you're wrong

We still march when our leaders
Take us down a road we know is wrong
We still fill the still air
With the words of protest songs
You think days where we believed in change
Are finally dead and gone
But we still march when our leaders
Take us down a road we know is wrong

We may not get the press we used to
But that don't mean that we're gone
We still march when our leaders
Take us down a road we know is wrong
