This Garden

I never thought I'd see the day When you became what you've become It's easy now just to look away And leave your conscience on the run Spend so much time not looking for answers Someone else's to blame As long as you don't take the drop To you it's all the same Blood, sweat and tears Really don't matter Just the things that you do In this garden Some time I like to get away Chase a thought and fly The people here will never change They're too scared to look outside Community spirit neighborhood watch Curtains twitching all the time Got to have a look at what next door's got Cause your credit's on the line The other day I saw a fox He was running for his life His eyes were wide but his mind was shut To the redcoat's bugle calls But when he got home his path was blocked By some 'sportman's' clever guise And if this how far your culture's got Then I deny it The crackdown starts The law descends and the nightmare starts again Though they tighten the security net There's always one who gets away --- This Garden - The Levellers
