I Will Not Dance Songtext
von Chi Coltrane

Did you say you′re a public servant
Well then let me ask you why
You're keeping the public uninformed
When you′re not feeding us with lies

Oh, listen to our founding fathers
Sit down and read the Bill of Rights
Yeah, you'd better learn to play the game by the rules
Or you're gonna have an awful fight
Oh yeah, that′s right, you′re gonna have an awful fight

'Cause I will not dance to your music
And I will not drink of your wine
And I will not toast to your success
Because you′re no friend of mine
Oh yeah, you know it, you're no friend of mine
Oh, that′s right

Why do you take my brother
Tell me, why do you take my son
Shipping them off to another land
To fight a war that can't be won


Oh, you can′t say you don't know better
Because by now the truth is out
The people are all sick of following you
'Cause you don′t know what it′s all about
Oh yeah, that's right, you don′t know what it's all about

And I will not dance to your music
And I will not drink of your wine
And I will not toast to your success
Because you′re no friend of mine
Oh yeah, you hear me, you're no friend of mine
Oh, that′s right

Oh, I will not dance to your music
And I will not drink of your wine
And I will not toast to your success
Because you're no friend of mine
Oh yeah, you know it, you're no friend of mine
Oh, that′s right

I′m the younger generation
And I love my country land
Oh, I can't stand to watch the nation fall apart
′Cause you won't understand


God help you public servant
When you stand before the King
When your works are shown and your lies are known
And your wasted life won′t mean a thing
Oh yeah, so pay attention to me as I sing

'Cause I will not dance to your music
And I will not drink of your wine
No, I will not toast to your success
Because you′re no friend of mine

No, I will not dance to your music
No, I will not drink your wine
Oh, I will not toast to your success
'Cause you're no friend of mine
No, I will not dance to your music
Oh, I will not drink your wine
No, no, no, I will not toast to your success
′Cause you′re no friend of mine
No, no, no, I will not dance to your music
No, I will not drink your wine
