The Knife (Live from De Monfort Hall, Leicester, 25th February 1973)

The Knife

Tell me my life is about to begin
Tell me that I am a hero
Promise me all of your violent dreams
I guaranteed all you will need them
Now, in this ugly world it is time to destroy all this evil
Now, when I give the word
Are you ready to fight for your freedom
Now!

Stand up and fight, for you know we are right
We must strike at the lies
That have spread like disease through our minds
Soon we'll have won and we’ll treasure this worth
With our winnings and kindness to all who our love now deservе

Some of you are going to die
Martyrs of coursе to the freedom that I shall provide

I'll give you the names of those you must kill
Have them all burned and quickly
Cover them up in Trafalgar Square
Hurry to see, you'll see them dead
In this hate filled world, we must break all the chains that have bound us
Now, the crusade has begun, hang them on stakes, let the blood flow
Now!

Stand up and fight, for you know we are right
We must strike at the lies
That have spread like disease through our minds
Soon we’ll have won and we'll treasure this worth
With our winnings and kindness to all who our love now deserve

Some of you are going to die
Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide

We are only wanting freedom?
We are only wanting freedom?
We are only wanting freedom?

We are only wanting freedom?
We are only wanting freedom?
We are only wanting freedom?

We have won!

Some of you are going to die
Martyrs of course to the freedom that I shall provide

Thank you
