The Dream
(To the melody of La Marseillaise) Forward my friends without fear or doubt! The days of glory have arrived! The dawn of truth has risen It expels the past's dark fog It expels the past's dark fog! Is eternal suffering not enough? Stand up you who have been robbed From sea to shining sea We have been none; We shall be all. May our union grow strong! A new world will be won! Ring out the cry of vengeance: Forward! Forward! Forward! The plutocrat and fascist scum Want to take everything that you have! They grow fat on your hard work They will suck you down to the bone They will suck you down to the bone! The chains of old will be swords And after the deed is done with The swords will be ploughshares. May our union grow strong! A new world will be won! Ring out the cry of vengeance: Forward! Forward! Forward!
