about

A protest song about the policies of the Conservative government. It was released just ahead of the 2019 general election in the UK.

The song uses the main melody of Jeremiah Clarke’s “Prince of Denmark’s March”, sometimes called “Trumpet Voluntary” and often misattributed to Henry Purcell.

This track was remastered in 2020.

lyrics

Take hands and march to show
Our strength shall grow
And we shall not fail.
Take hands and let them know
Society is not for sale.

Out with a world of contracts to cheat us!
Out with the lords who hoard their gold!
Out with a world of sanctions to leave us
Starving in the cold:

Take hands and march to show
Our strength shall grow
And we shall not fail.
Take hands and let them know
Society is not for sale.

These are the dreams of safety and justice.
These are the hands to make it true.
Soon to return the wealth of the many
Stolen by the few:

Take hands and march to show
Our strength shall grow
And we shall not fail
Take hands and let them know
Society is not for sale.
