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