Address to MilitarismYou execute your duty well In capitalist circles you're quite a swell It's them I'm sure you serve the best I wonder does the workers rest. With high society you often meet Lots of wine for you they treat Success to you with every drink I wonder does the workers think The parasites you serve so well They swear from heaven you have fell Over welcome with them God ??? I wonder does the workers see Some men of Honour ????????? Their cunning plots to conceal At it you're never far behind I wonder is the workers blind With the archfiends your a p?????? You keep the masses at the gate At your command there they must stay I wonder what the workers say In the mud you would labour drag Also their esteem and honoured flag But when you lie prostrate in the dust Few will say that you were just. When labour rises from her slumber She'll come down on you like thunder And cast you right into hell There for ever more to dwell. When labour and you in battle meet She'll trample you among her feet Your past she never will forgive No, not so long as free men live. When labour starts to do the right She'll join hands and show her might No capitalist press with all its merit Can alter their united spirit. When labour meets from every land Your power though strong can never stand They'll unite as one and brithers be And fight together for liberty. |
