Johannesburg Lyrics


The victims of oppressionI had a vision of a new world
Another hidden in the southern plain
Far away from the western wars
And in this land we shall start againBut in his anger...is a nation broken in two
And the doors of ? shall be open for the chosen few
And we call this land South Africa
The Cape of hope to a northern star
But that hope and peace will never be far
Johannesburg
JohannesburgAnd we raise our children
By the blade and bullet they learn
But unrest in the homeland
Crowds gather, the township burnsWe stand divided
But together we will show them all
We can stand for so long
We break away for the good of us allAnd we call this land South Africa
The Cape of hope to a northern star
But that hope and peace will never be far

Johannesburg
Johannesburg
JohannesburgHere's to the future
To a future we may never see
Here's to the brave new world
May we live in harmonyAnd we call this land South Africa
The Cape of hope to a northern star
But that hope and peace will never be far
Johannesburg
Johannesburg
...

The Anti-Nowhere League is a UK Punk band formed in 1980, by lead singer Animal (real name Nick Kulmer) and rhythm guitarist Magoo (real name Chris Exall), with Bones on Drums and Baggy Elvy on Bass. Their first gig was at Tunbridge Wells, on the day of the annual carnival, at which they promptly got arrested. This led to their first press coverage with the local newspaper describing their gig as a 'cacophany of noise'.
