[Marxism-Thaxis] The Internationale Charles Brown Fri, 16 Jan 2009 07:28:14 -0800 Through the magic of google (smile) http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/billy+bragg/the+internationale_20018240.html Stand up, all victims of oppression For the tyrants fear your might Dont cling so hard to your possessions For you have nothing, if you have no rights Let racist ignorance be ended For respect makes the empires fall Freedom is merely privilege extended Unless enjoyed by one and all Chorus: So come brothers and sisters For the struggle carries on The internationale Unites the world in song So comrades come rally For this is the time and place The international ideal Unites the human race Let no one build walls to divide us Walls of hatred nor walls of stone Come greet the dawn and stand beside us Well live together or well die alone In our world poisoned by exploitation Those who have taken, now they must give And end the vanity of nations Weve but one earth on which to live And so begins the final drama In the streets and in the fields We stand unbowed before their armour We defy their guns and shields When we fight, provoked by their aggression Let us be inspired by like and love For though they offer us concessions Change will not come from above >>> JC Helary 01/16/2009 10:23 AM >>> I like Billy Braggs' version.
