Don't need no politicians don't need no ministers don't need a dead end system where you're freedom's as good as dead Don't wanna pick sides don't wanna have to choose I've got my own ideas and I've got my own views CHORUS Now don't tell me you believe in their lies You'll never know freedom, freedom has its price Don't wanna live in fear of some secret police who've got you on file and know everything you've did Don't wanna be ruled by the chose few whose interest is personnel gain I want my voice to be loud and strong not a scream from the bottom of the heap
