Peacock & the Surfarians

Lyrics

We crossed an ocean, broke our chains
Tossed that crown into the flames
Said no to George and every throne
We built this land, we make it home

So don't come round here waving swords
Don't send your law to break our doors

No kings! No lords
No boots behind closed doors
We rise! We sing
This land don't bow to kings
This land don't bow to kings

We march with signs, we chant, we cry
We raise our fists but not to fight
We don't burn towns to light our way
But we won't kneel, not yesterday

You call us mobs, but we seek peace
Don't silence voices in the streets

No kings! No lords
No boots behind closed doors
We rise! We sing
This land don't bow to kings
This land don't bow to kings

No crown, no chain, no bloody reign
No tear gas clouds to hide your shame
No torchlit pride, no fear parade
We stand for love, we won't obey

No kings! No lords
No boots behind closed doors
We rise! We sing
This land don't bow to kings
No lies! No war
No silence anymore
We rise! We sing
This land don't bow to kings

No kings
Not now, not ever
No kings
This land is ours together
