Since Yesterday Was Here

There's people marching in the streets

Trying to be heard and be seen

To care

And be fair

Yet sit down protests lead to pepper spray

And politicians, bankers who just turn away

Cos they

Think they'll never pay

It looks to me like nothing's changed

Since yesterday was here

It's just the same

Since yesterday was here

So, Northern Ireland or Vietnam

Pick your cause and make your stand

And fight

For what you think is right

We got peaceful protest once again

You can occupy Wall Street and Number 10

And they

Still won't give a damn

But the shouts of a million voices

Won't simply fade away

And the shouts of a million more

Will join us everyday

Poll tax, miner's strikes, MLK

Margaret Thatcher, CND and Watergate

Again

And it's all the same (You see I've heard it said)

The rich get richer and the rest get deceived

I think my brain is on repeat

We can't

Let them win again
