Текст песни Propaganda - Speedy Justice

This story's right, this story's true
I would not tell lies to you
Like the promises they did not keep
And how they fenced us in like sheep
Said to us see through our eyes
Force us all to be liberalized
Taught us to read, be proud not pray
Then they took the children away

Took the children away
The children away
Snatched from their mother's breast
Said this is for the best
Took them away

The schools, services and the policeman
Said you've got to understand
We'll give them what you can't give
Teach them how to really live
Teach them how to live, they said
Set up to browbeat them instead
Taught them that and taught them this
But mostly taught them prejudice

You took the children away
The children away
Breaking their mothers heart
Tearing us all apart
Took them away

One dark day in Washington
Came and didn't give a damn
The mothers cried go get their dad
They came running, fighting mad
Mothers tears were falling down
Dads shaped up and stood their ground
Said, you touch my kids and you fight me
And they took them from our family

Took us away
They took us away
Snatched from our mother's breast
Said this was for the best
Took us away
Told us what to do and say
Taught us all progressive ways
Then they split us up again
And gave us gifts to ease the pain
Sent us off to empty school
As we grew up we felt ice cold
