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 |
