Lyrics:
The policemen broke my door down Dragged me from my bed I asked them what was happening They just ignored the words I said They waved their guns in my face Kept screaming out my name Something terrible had happened And somehow I was to blame O freedom, what liberties are taken in thy name In thy name O freedom, what liberties are taken What liberties are taken What liberties are taken in thy name My accusers formed a jury The judge and the defense The charges were made known to me But not the evidence There was no guilty verdict Yet, still I was detained Flown to another country where Their methods are less constrained O freedom, what liberties are taken in thy name In thy name O freedom, what liberties are taken What liberties are taken What liberties are taken in thy name In our determination To defend democracy We must not destroy the safeguards That underpin our liberty For who will pay the price if Injustice such as this Turns our protectors to oppressors And angry men to terrorists? O freedom, what liberties are taken in thy name In thy name O freedom, what liberties are taken What liberties are taken What liberties are taken in thy name
