《The Triumph of General Ludd》歌词

[00:00:00] The Triumph of General Ludd - Chumbawamba
[00:00:00] No more chant your old rhymes about old Robin Hood
[00:00:07] His feats I do little admire
[00:00:11] I'll sing the achievements of General Ludd
[00:00:15] Now the hero of Nottingham Shire
[00:00:19] Brave Ludd was to measures of violence unused
[00:00:24] 'Till his sufferings became so severe
[00:00:28] That at last to defend his own interest he rose
[00:00:33] And for the great fight did prepare
[00:00:37] The guilty may fear but no vengeance he aims
[00:00:42] At the honest man's life or estate
[00:00:46] His wrath is entirely confined to wide frames
[00:00:50] And to those that would prices abate
[00:00:54] Those engines of mischief were sentenced to die
[00:00:59] By unanimous vote of the trade
[00:01:03] And Ludd who can all opposition defy
[00:01:07] Was the grand executioner made
[00:01:11] And when in the work he destruction employs
[00:01:16] Himself to no method confines
[00:01:20] By fire and by water he gets them destroyed
[00:01:24] For the elements aid his designs
[00:01:29] Whether guarded by soldiers along the highway
[00:01:33] Or closely secured in a room
[00:01:37] He shivers them up by night and by day
[00:01:42] And nothing can soften their doom
[00:01:45] Ye may censure great Ludd's disrespect for the laws
[00:01:50] Who ne'er for a moment reflects
[00:01:54] That foul imposition alone was the 'cause
[00:01:58] Which produced these unhappy effects
[00:02:02] Let the haughty the humble no longer oppress
[00:02:06] Then shall Ludd sheath his conquering sword
[00:02:10] His grievances instantly meet with redress
[00:02:15] Then peace shall be quickly restored
[00:02:19] Let the wise and the great lend their aid and advice
[00:02:25] Nor e'er their assistance withdraw
[00:02:29] Till full fashioned work at the old fashioned price
[00:02:33] Is established by custom and law
[00:02:37] Then the trade when this arduous contest is o'er
[00:02:41] Shall raise in full splendor its head
[00:02:45] And colting and cutting and swearing no more
[00:02:49] Shall deprive all his workers of bread
