Born Again Cretin

Robert Wyatt · Radio Experiment Rome, February 1981 [2009]

At least I won't be shot for singing

I'm a free agent, I can protest

This must be freedom

I must be happy!

So let Mandela rot in prison

Someone should tell him how lucky he is

Read him George Orwell, explain Solidarity because

He must understand how he needs us

What with our Culture, our Charm and our Brains

But how could he understand?

Heathen got no soul
