Freedom

The Housemartins


I used to think you understood
Taught me right and learnt me good
Made things simple for my brain
Told the truth and made it plain ‎

But the implications I mistook
Until I found out whose side you took
And now with paper in my hand I'm beginning to understand ‎

So this is freedom – [They must be joking]
They must be joking – [If they think its true]
So this is freedom - [I doubt their truth]
So this is freedom – [For me and you] ‎

From the front page news to the interviews
It's sink the reds and lift the blues
They pretend they're differing points of view
But it's only different shades of blue ‎

But the implications I mistook
Until I found out whose side you took
And now with paper in my hand I'm beginning to understand ‎

So this is freedom – [They must be joking]
They must be joking – [If they think its true]
So this is freedom - [I doubt their truth]
So this is freedom – [For me and you] ‎

So this is freedom – [They must be joking]
They must be joking – [If they think its true]
So this is freedom - [I doubt their truth]
So this is freedom – [For me and you] ‎

F.R.E.E.D.O.M.
They locked us up once
So they'll do it again ‎

C.H.A.I.N.E.D.
They locked up my friends
Now they're coming for me ‎
