Displacement Song
PackThe rumor was spreading through townThey were coming in numbers to tear this place downTo the ground There they come in their twos and their threesWith their guns in the front so you can’t fail to seeCan’t stay now you, got to carry all you can takeFor they’re on, they’re on, they’re on the uptakeDon’t look to me you’ve got to carry your own weightFor they’re on, they’re on, they’re on their waySo we’re standing in line with our pots and our pansAnd the sink if you canAnd the children your one free handAnd many miles later I’ve worn out my shoesSo the heals are all blistered and hardened and bruised From the warYou’d better keep upCan’t stay now you, got to carry all you can takeFor they’re on, they’re on, they’re on the uptakeDon’t look to me you’ve got to carry your own weightLetras de cancionesFor they’re on, they’re on, they’re on their wayAnd I don’t mind the fighting But all we’ve got are the rocksBut the sticks and the stones But they don’t break the bonesWhen they hitSo quieten your voicesAnd stamp out your firesWe’ll be sleeping by dayAnd we’ll travel on that nightKeep up the good fightCan’t stay now you, got to carry all you can takeFor they’re on, they’re on, they’re on the uptakeDon’t look to me you’ve got to carry your own weightFor they’re on, they’re on, they’re on their wayDon’t look to me you’ve got to carry your own weightFor they’re on, they’re on, they’re on their way
