Lyrics Levellers – Food Roof Family
Text:
Oh, it’s exquisite
That the ones who destroy it
Are the ones who need it
Now that’s exquisite
And each decision
Leads to indecision
Fear of the recognition
Of the truth
Have you ever ever stopped
The voices that you’ve never heard before?
And won’t we ever ever stop
Won’t we ever stop to learn
Doesn’t everybody want the same thing?
Food, roof, and family
Doesn’t everybody need the same thing?
Food, roof, and family
1967
To 2019
And all the peace and love
Became a mean, old scene
Through all the years now
That we’ve lived together
So that it’s not a taboo
To say that I love you
Have you ever ever stopped
The voices that you’ve never heard before?
And won’t we never ever stop
Won’t we ever stop to learn
That everybody wants the same thing
Food, roof, and family
Food, roof and family
And doesn’t everybody want the same thing?
Food, roof, and family
Doesn’t everybody need the same thing?
Food, roof, and family
Doesn’t everybody want the same thing?
Food, roof, and family
Doesn’t everybody want the same thing?
Food, roof, and family
