Sons and Daughters (of Robin Hood) Songtext
von Damh the Bard

We all watched you on a TV
Quite honourable gentleman apparantly
Different voices with only on name
To win my vote and to win the game
Now some have died to pave the way
So we can vote come polling-day
X marks the spot that gives us our voice
But how do you vote when there isn′t a choice

If you thought that we would do nothing
You've misunderstood
For we are the sons and daughters of Robin Hood

See I remember exclusion zones
At solstice time around the Stones
Poll Tax riots at Trafalgar Square
The rich they got richer the poor were stripped bare
Builing new roads with no thought for the land
And the blood of the beanfield is still on your hands
Now drilling of Shetland will do you just fine
And you wanted to sell off our forest like you closed down mines


If you thought that we would do nothing
You′ve misunderstood
For we are the sons and daughters of Robin Hood

There's nothing to see
There's nothing to see
There′s nothing to see here
There′s nothing to see
Won't you just look away
There′s nothing to see here

England's a green and pleasant land
It′s not there to put cash in your hand
I see your symbol is the english oaktree
Is that your idea of irony
Now millions of eyes have turned upon you
And each one is watching what you will do
But all are ready to spoil your game
For the blood of an outlaw it flows in our veins

If you thought that we would do nothing
You've misunderstood
For we are the sons and daughters of Robin Hood
