[Verse 1]
Am
You don't have to sit back and watch the psychopaths fight
Em
The hand of friendship is usally right
Bb E
Most peope want peace and a home somewhere
A E
They don't care about the thugs and their murderous stare
A
Now we knew this, and for fourty years
E
A brand new way replaced traditional fears
Bb E
Most people lived happily side by side
A E
No place for terror, no need to hide
A
But it wasn't to the liking of the World Bank suits
E
Who cheered when the tribes rediscovered their roots
Bb E
They can handle torture, rape, and death
A E
If it opens up markets for the IMF
[Chorus]
A E
And they're free now, oh they're free now
Bb E A E
'A chance for individuals to compete'
A E
Free now, oh they're free now
Bb E A E
Fascists gun down children in the street.
[Verse 2]
A
I remember the message from Amnesty
E
That said the whole damn lot of them should be free
Bb E
No matter what they say, no matter what they do
A E
'Cause "they're all entitled to their point of view"
A
The liberals cheered when the money men won
E
Now they cry in the face of the tank and the gun
Bb E
And the arms manufacturers are having fun as well
A E
Growing fat on the profits of sectarian hell
A
Now we always saw it another way
E
For a hundred years, educate each day
Bb E
And suppress the thugs and their murderous lies
A E
Keep the lid on the pot 'til the hate boiled dry
[Chorus]
A E
But they're free now, oh they're free now
Bb E A E
The rape camp guards can have a Big Mac for tea
A E
Free now, oh they're free now
Bb E A E
Welcome to Western liberal democracy.
[Verse 3]
Bb C A
There's freedom in Bischofferode, in East Germany
Bb C A
A town closed due to "economic unviability"
Bb C
The word has become meaningless, a travesty
Bb C Em
For there can be no freedom without power for the free --
A
And that means more than shopping, actually.
[Verse 4]
A
In Afghanistan in 1979
E
Everybody swallowed the corporate line
Bb E
Misogynists from the twelfth century
A
Were "freedom fighters" on TV
The Western world took them to their hearts
E
The Afghan nation was torn apart
Bb E
And now everything's gone, no one seems to care
A E
About the awful nightmare happening there
A
Civil war in Kabul, fundamentalists clash
E
With arsenals bought with Western cash
Bb E
But the 9 o'clock news isn't there anymore
A E
They're not fighting commies so it's not a real war
[Chorus]
A E
They're free now, oh they're free now
Bb E A E
They freeze in Moscow, burn in Chechnya
A E
Free now, oh they're free now
Bb E A
Fascism, war, poverty, mafia
A E
Free now, oh they're free now
Bb E A E
Look "freedom" up in the latest dictionary
A E
Free now, oh they're free now
Bb E A E
It says: "an IMF loan and a monetarist economy."
[Verse 5]
A
In East Berlin the satirists sing
A
"Auf die Dauer hilft nur Mauer"
A
We want our Wall back
A
We want our Wall back
A
Can we have our wall back, please?
Am
You don't have to sit back and watch the psychopaths fight
Em
