They call me the upstart monstrous lawyer A mere legend of lies, And I can pretend it was worth the war If I cover up my eyes And I walk in blindness, 'cross the stones And down to Traitors Gate. Here we go again, it's still the same ENGLAND'S NEW CHAINS I've been the willing soldier And I've fought the b_____ years And I can pretend it was worth the war If I cover up my ears And I walk in silence, 'cross the stones And down to Traitors Gate. Here we go again, it's still the same ENGLAND'S NEW CHAINS Only time will tell who survives the fire Only time will tell why we've been fighting all this while I am the Free-born Englishman I am any mother's son I can pretend it was worth the war If I cut out my tongue And I walk in silence, 'cross the stones And down to Traitors Gate. Here we go again, it's still the same ENGLAND'S NEW CHAINS ...and we are held faster than before!
