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