The Levelution Lyrics by Coope, Boyes and Simpson

What We Sing Is What We Are

0

[Verse]
The Levelution is begun
And Belper’s where this song is sung
So I'll go home and get me gun
And shoot the Duke of Wellington
[Chorus]
We do not hear the bugle's note
We haven't even got the vote
So for the likes of you and me
The government opposed must be
[Verse]
We've had enough of Kings and Queens
Our jobs are taken by machines
Our children starve for want of bread
Pray tеll me how they should be fеd
[Chorus]
We do not hear the bugle's note
We haven't even got the vote
So, for the likes of you and me
The government opposed must be
[Verse]
Pentrich isn’t far away
Where those poor lads did sport and play
Betrayed they were in a cruel game
And, Oliver, we know your name
[Chorus]
We do not hear the bugle's not
We haven't even got the vote
So for the likes of you and me
The government opposed must be
[Verse]
Don't look to us for new recruits
For we are not just slavish brutes
Until you let us have our say
We're over Cowhill and far away
[Chorus]
We do not hear the bugle's note
We haven't even got the vote
So for the likes of you and me
The government opposed must be
[Verse]
The Levelution is begun
And Belper’s where this song is sung
So I’ll go home and get me gun
And shoot the Duke of Wellington
