Freedom is a Sweet Word Lyrics by Fat And Frantic

Aggressive Sunbathing

1987

Freedom is a sweet word
A taste to savour, say it loud
Exercise your freedom
Freedom means you are allowed to make and guard your pile against the people who have freedom to do
As they please but haven’t used it so constructively as you
You know that freedom is a sweet word
But freedom without justice is a freedom for a few
Who have bought the right to tell us that their freedom lie is true
Well freedom without justice
Grows up into slavery
If you’re not a Barclaycard carrying member of the free
Freedom is a sweet word
I heard it and my spirit leapt
But when I came to taste it
I found a free man there who'd crept right in and stolen all my children’s freedom, precious freedom away
And he laughed because he’d bought the judge the morning of the same day
Oh yes, freedom is a sweet word
But freedom without justice is a freedom for a few
Who have bought the right to tell us that their freedom lie is true
Well freedom without justice
Grows up into slavery
If you’re not a Barclaycard carrying member of the free
Freedom is a sweet word
It shines and glistens like a star
But where’s the joy in freedom
When you’re free to obey the colour bar
You’re free to starve and free to die and free to do anything but express
That Jesus never gave to anyone the freedom to oppress
You know that freedom is a sweet word
But freedom without justice is a freedom for a few
Who have bought the right to tell us that their freedom lie is true
Well freedom without justice
Grows up into slavery
If you’re not a Barclaycard carrying member of the free
If you’re not a Barclaycard carrying member of the free
