Verse
G#
Today in a village of famine,
D#
A# feast was had by all
So stop all the presses
C# D#
and listen for the riots and brawls
G#
But no rifles were aimed at comrades,
C#
Only at our fascist lords
D#
There were ghosts of
Winstanley’s farmers
C#
When they were wielding
D#
Ploughs not swords
[Chorus]
G# C#
What reason have they to dance
And to sing?
D#
Their pockets are all empty,
C# D#
They've no stewards, queens or kings
G#
No bosses, laws or order
C#
Marching armies must we bring
D#
To give them all a reason
C#
Now to dance
D#
And to sing!
[Verse 2]
G#
Hush scholar of history,
D#
Do not write a word
D#
We'll make repetition out of precedents,
C# D#
See that this dream goes deferred
G#
Tell of insatiable greed within us
C#
And how the rebellion didn't work
D#
So in a hundred years it's forgotten
C# D#
Shift the tale and shift the worth
[Chorus]
G# C#
What reason have they to dance and to sing?
D#
Their pockets are all empty,
C# D#
They've no stewards, queens or kings
G#
No bosses, laws or order
C#
Marching armies must we bring
D#
To give them all a reason
C# D#
Now to dance and to sing!
[Instrumental]
D# C# C A# G#
???
[Verse 3]
G#
Where the women took up arms
C#
To kill the fascists to protect life
D#
Where the food was freed at last
C# D#
For all the people's fork and knife
[Chorus]
G# C#
'Tis the reason they have to dance and to sing
D#
Their pockets are all empty,
C# D#
They've no stewards, queens or kings
G#
No bosses, laws or order,
C# D#
Everyone has everything
D#
Each day gives them a reason now
C# D# C# C A# G#
To dance and to sing!
