Father finds nine seeds, there is no lush land Mother spots a fire, but there is no warm bread And the child finds water but there are no plates to wash Outrage on the river Every landmark speech is just An exercise in the self-delusion of the establishment No one knows what the cost of that Self-delusion will eventually be But it could be immense Father finds a sharp rock But the fields are empty Mother feeds a fire But there's nothing to heat up And the child runs outside But there's nothing to pretend Outrage on the river Every landmark speech is just An exercise in the self-delusion of the establishment No one knows what the cost of that Self-delusion will eventually be But it could be immense The family slept badly last night All those decades of non-violent struggle But now that the prospects for peaceful change Are virtually nil The live on the brink of a precipice under a hill Father's marching into town Nothing to do but cry and uprise Mother's marching into town Nothing to do but cry and uprise Grandpa's marching into town Nothing to do but cry and uprise Grandma's marching into town Nothing to do but cry and uprise And the child is marching But there's nothing to do but uprise Rage on the river Every landmark speech is just An exercise in the self-delusion of the establishment No one knows what the cost of that Self-delusion will eventually be But it will be immense
