Can you hear the sound
of the fiddle and the drum
passing them fade
Can you hear the sound
of chanting in the streets
screaming for better days

you've heard it all
yes, we've all heard it all
but tell me what has changed
you've seen it all
we've all seen it all
so tell me what has changed

and the palace stays the same
only the gards ever change
so lay me down

you've heard the singer
simgs protest songs
telling us what is wrong

you've read the books
that say where to look
but where's the answers gone

you've seen it all
yes, we've all seen it all
but tell me what has changed

but the palace stays the same
only the gards ever change
so lay me down
