Truth and liberty are mine to live
Steal a crown from a king,
Break an angel's wings
But you're never gonna break,
never gonna break my faith.

Hey! Think the time is right for a palace revolution
But where I live the game to play is compromise solution.

Except to sing for a rock n' roll band
'Cuz in sleepy London town
There's no place for a street fighting man
No!

To the point of agony.
Growing darkness taking dawn

I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more
No, I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more

To be just like them
They sing while you slave and I just get bored.
I ain't gonna work on Maggie's farm no more.

Nothing to win, and
Nothing left to lose
