Human Rights

Human Rights June 27,2015 Human rights for you and me Palestinian children living free People free without a tear Children playing without fear Irish children white, orange and green A united Ireland without the queen A new Ireland for me and you Living in peace with thirty-two No death squads in our country Make killing is a memory of our past First nation people have their land No dividing line in the sand Mount Rushmore Mountain Time for change Those faces on the rock Free the people you and me First Nations people must be free Africa, Madiba’s dream Eyes blind to bigotry He showed the world the way Let the people have their say Black Americans locked in jail The justice system did surely fail Homeless people, you know what I mean Give them a home, the American dream Feed the people, ban the bomb The politicians got it wrong Make our world a better place Save our children and the human race Human rights for you and me Palestinian children living free Gerrard McGeachy
