Beat of the Drum Video (MV)

If you don't do what you're told
We're going to lock you away
Strip you of who you are
And all of your family

Yeah we'll give you a sense of work
Yes but without any pay
Put you to the back of the queue
One that's growing everyday

But I'm not the only one
There's more where I come from
The more that we speak out
The louder the beat of the drum
The louder the beat of the drum

Just like snakes and ladders
We take you back to the start
We load the dice take your self esteem
Then we break it apart

When will the suffering
Political hype ever end
Where where will all the sick go
To find a healing friend

But I'm not the only one
There's more where I come from
The more that we speak out
The louder the beat of the drum
The louder the beat of the drum

Why can't the strong
Why can't they heal the weak
Could it be they're up to the knee
In the riches that they seek
And why why can't the rich
Pay their fair share
Cause we all know that you know
It's the poor what got them there

But I'm not the only one
There's more where I come from
And the more that we speak out
The louder the beat of the drum
The louder the beat of the drum
The beat of the drum
