Bring down the government, bring it down for fun God only knows they've had their time, it's about time it was done.
So bring down the government, get them on the run,
we'll bake their heads to ginger bread,
and eat them one by one.
Bring down the government, do it now for love,
do it for your mother and sister too and do for God above.
So roll on my brothers we can find out how,
to walk hand in hand to the promised land*,
if we bring down the government now.
Bring down the government now.
---Lindisfarne, Dingly Dell, 1972 [short clip here]
