Power In The Darkness

Lyricist:Mark Ambler, Tom Robinson

Power in the darkness
Frightening lies from the other side
Power in the darkness
Stand up and fight for your rights

Freedom, we're talking 'bout your freedom
Freedom to choose what you do with your body
Freedom to believe what you like
Freedom for brothers to love one another
Freedom for black and white

Freedom from harassment, intimidation
Freedom for the mother and wife
Freedom from Big Brother's interrogation
Freedom to live your own life, I'm talking 'bout

Power in the darkness
Frightening lies from the other side
Power in the darkness
Stand up and fight for your rights

Today, institutions fundamental
To the British system of government are under attack
The public schools, the house of lords
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
The church of England, the holy institution of marriage
Even our magnificent police force are no longer safe
From those who would undermine our society

And it's about time we said 'Enough is enough'
And saw a return to the traditional British values of discipline
Obedience, morality and freedom
What we want is

Freedom from the reds and the blacks and the criminals
Prostitutes, pansies and punks
Football hooligans, juvenile delinquents
Lesbians and left wing scum

Freedom from the niggers and the Pakis and the unions
Freedom from the gypsies and the Jews
Freedom from left wing layabouts and liberals
Freedom from the likes of you

Power in the darkness
Frightening lies from the other side
Power in the darkness
Stand up and fight for your rights
