paroles de chanson November - David Prince

It was a day like any other in November
And I woke up with the future open wide
I went off to my job like almost everybody did
I tried to make a difference and to stand for what is right
But by eight o'clock pm we all could see the tide way turning
And what was left was something much more sinewy and tough
By eight o'clock pm pacific standard time I saw it
Americans threw up their hands and said
We've given up

We'll give up our dignity And we'll give up the truth
And Sesame Street is going, boys
So we're giving up our youth
We've given up believing what our neighbors
We gave up on America that day

Let's talk about the ones who seem to need our help the most
About the poor, the elderly and sick
We'll take away their housing
Meals on Wheels and healthcare
And while we're at it kill Planned Parenthood
And give expectant moms a kick

Now everyone protests and says
Don't say that we don't care
But when you take an axe to the E.P.A
What have you accomplished there
And now we ponder what the loss of healthcare means in human lives
We try to keep out immigrants But bring in Russian spies

We'll give up our dignity And we'll give up the truth
And Sesame Street is going, boys
So we're giving up our youth
We've given up believing what our neighbors
We gave up on America that day

But out of all the things that we're so keen to sacrifice
The one thing that's most valuable to elderly and youth
The one thing that gives freedom and must never be forsaken
Is knowing what's a lie and what's the truth

So let's stand up for dignity
And let's stand up for truth
Let's stand up for the poor, the sick, the elderly and youth
Let's try to really listen to what others have to say
And stand up for America today

So let's stand up for dignity
And let's stand up for truth
Let's stand up for the poor, the sick, the elderly and youth
Let's try to really listen to what others have to say
And stand up for America today
