Utopian Blues Lyrics


Kings and Queens in castles

A triumph of our state

Enduring, as these monarchs

The rot that eons create

Invaders take their chances

But never match our force

We defend a country

That has nothing to fight for

The marvels of invention

We've seen them realised

Such has been their impact

Changed theirs, and now our lives

Knowing these achievements

Would fill our hearts with pride

But in the shadows of these boasts

Children starve and die

(Chorus)

They tell us we can live the dream

One that lies just out of reach

A perfect world, we cannot see

Suffer on, in this utopia

The gods we chose look down in favour

From upon the gold we sacrificed

They ask for more of our devotion

Amidst our struggle, just to survive

This is democracy

For the chosen race and creed

Only free to remain in their sight

With club in left hand, and a whip, in the right

(Chorus)
