Lyrics John Lennon

John Lennon

Attica State

1. What a waste of human power

What a waste of human lives

Shoot the prisoners in the towers

Forty-three poor widowed wives

2. Media blames it on the prisoners

But the prisoners did not kill

Rockefeller pulled the trigger

That is what the people feel

R: Attica State, Attica State

We're all mates with Attica State

3. Free all prisoners, jail the judges

Free all prisoners everywhere

All they want is truth and justice

All they need is love and care

4. They all live in suffocation

Let's not watch them die in sorrow

Now's the time for revolution

Give them all a chance to grow

R: Attica State...

5. Come together, join the movement

Take a stand for human rights

Fear and hatred cloud our judgement

Free us all from endless night

R: Attica State...

Attica State, Attica State

We all live in Attica State

Attica State, Attica State

Atiica, Attica, Attica State
