[00:29.62] Way back in the year of 2017
[00:33.69] The sun was growing hotter
[00:35.31] And oil was way beyond its peak
[00:37.88] When crazy Hector Johnson broke into a refinery
[00:41.38] Just like Boston tea
[00:46.44] It was the summer of the riots
[00:48.38] And London suffered sweltering heat
[00:50.56] And the gangs of Mini Coopers
[00:52.44] Took the battle to the streets
[00:54.56] But when the creed was handed down
[00:56.56] For no more trucks and no more cars
[00:59.06] They threw cans of petrol through the windows
[01:01.63] At Scotland Yard
[01:03.15]
[01:05.14] Gasoline
[01:07.40] Will be free, will be free
[01:11.52] Gasoline
[01:15.65] Will be free, will be free
[01:22.15]
[01:29.77] When the Mounties stormed the palace
[01:31.77] Of the Saudi family
[01:33.71] They held them up for ransom
[01:35.84] Without disturbing their high tea
[01:38.21] But their getaway was shaky
[01:40.08] They stalled in the Riyadh streets
[01:42.46] 'Cause you can't make it very far when your tank is on empty
[01:46.64] Final can of gasoline was loaded on a truck
[01:50.83] And driven through the streets of Agra to the palace aqueduct
[01:54.90] You see, all the majesty of worship that once adorned these fatal halls
[01:59.77] Was the target for the angry
[02:01.65] As they blew up the Taj Mahal
[02:05.58] Gasoline
[02:07.40] Will be free, will be free
[02:13.90] Gasoline
[02:15.90] will be free, will be free
[02:22.46] Gasoline
[02:24.52] Will be free, will be free
[02:30.97] Gasoline
[02:33.16] will be free, will be free
[02:39.97]
[02:55.54] Gary ran a market way down in Tennessee
[02:59.97] Where all the farmers got together and talked about this great country
[03:04.44] But when the government turned its back on the farming man, what I hear
[03:08.69] They dragged the pumps out of the ground
[03:10.88] With a big vintage John Deere
[03:13.00] I've got soldiers on my payroll
[03:15.19] Standing guard on my front drive
[03:17.43] Snipers on the roof poised at those
[03:19.75] Who didn't want me alive
[03:21.32] 'Cause they audited my taxes
[03:23.25] My family under threat
[03:25.69] 'Cause I've got a message and a megaphone
[03:27.82] And I'll scream it to the death
[03:31.63] Gasoline
[03:33.56] Will be free, will be free
[03:40.06] Gasoline
[03:42.06] Will be free, will be free
[03:48.66] Gasoline
[03:50.79] Will be free, will be free
[03:57.28] Gasoline
[03:59.41] Will be free, will be free
[04:07.10]
[04:22.35] You got the farms in Argentina
[04:23.91] Making fuel from sugar cane
[04:26.28] You got the bastards in Washington
[04:28.03] Afraid of popping that greed vein
[04:30.47] 'Cause the money's in the pipeline
[04:32.60] And the pipeline's running dry
[04:34.72] And we'll be the last to recognize
[04:36.35]
[04:37.08] Where there's shit there's always flie
[04:40.22]
