Such a Rebel

I crawled out of the sea against all odds of survival

I came down from the trees, all hail the lord of the land

I told beggars and kings what they say in the bible

Wouldn’t bend my knee to the pope and repent

 

Chorus

I won’t sit and wait ‘til things get better

May the liberated say: He’s such a rebel

 

Let the nation fall at my command

Time will punish all, all those who delay

Let the freedom sprawl out of my hands

Let me tear down the wall and open the gate


Chorus 

I won’t sit and wait ‘til things get better

May the liberated say: He’s such a rebel


C-Teil 

I’m a freewheelin’ mind, I’m a son of a bitch

I won’t bend down to the bold and the rich

I’m the sting in the system, a bastard and beast

I’m the leader of legions, a prophet and priest

Oh come on, what the hell: Who do I try to fool

All those lies won’t last long and you all know the truth

I’m all talk and no trousers, I don’t know the score

When I wake up tomorrow, I won’t start a war


Chorus

It’s a little easier to yell:

Fuck you, I won’t do what to tell me!

Fuck you, I won’t do what to tell me!

I admit, I will sit and wait. I’m such a rebel
