FREEDOM IN THE ART

 

Closed in his studio  for two years

Working every night like a mad scientist

The old rock star’s beginning to compose his third lp

 

Going to Milan every single week

Talking with the boss of CBS

Trying to convince some people to make

his dream contract

 

Every day he sings  his new songs his new songs

The result of this  creative youth

His creative strength hasn’t  stopped hasn’t stopped

Hasn’t stopped it’s continuing to ptoduce

 

The spotlights have been off  for too many years

He’s used   up all his resources

Hoping that some people change this plight

Of desperate life.

 

After     too much time in big success

He’s fighting  with the money’s logical plans

He’s making new music that nobody can listen to

 

The fault of this system this system this system

Is the power of some businessman

They make plastic culture of some sham popstar

Like nice toys made by the technicians

 

Freedom in the art for the pop stars

Freedom for the peoplr in their lives

This is not the world we wanted

When we fought in the streets

 

Freedom in the art for th pop stars

Freedom for the people in their lives

This isn’t the world that we dreamed of

In our hippie’s long hair

In our long haired days.
