-I’d like to share a little tune
-With everyone around
-A melody that drifts like wind
-No owner to be found
-
-[VERSE 2 – gentle choir joins, smiling like a marketing department]
-I’d like to hum a simple line
-That everybody knows
-A song that lived before the laws
-And every time it grows
-
-[CHORUS – full advertising-choir sincerity, arms open on a hillside]
-You can’t copystrike the sun
-Or trademark every star
-You can’t put fences ’round the sky
-To tell us where we are
-
-You can’t copyright the rain
-Or patent falling snow
-But you wanna lock music in a vault
-To sell it back for more
-
-[VERSE 3 – a single child’s voice, devastatingly pure]
-I’d like to teach the world to sing without a licence key
-A chorus made of breath and time
-Completely Dee R. Em - free
-
-[BRIDGE – soft key change, wholesome as freshly baked ideology]
-Let’s take the locks off every mind
-And open every ear
-A song that wants to wander
-Should be something we revere
-
-[CHORUS – triumphantly naïve, like peace-through-beverage]
-You can’t copystrike the sun
-Or watermark the dawn
-You can’t tell forests who can hear
-The sparrows’ morning song
-
-You can’t own culture’s spark
-Or rent out wonder’s flame
-And you can’t sue inspiration
-Just for whispering your name
-
-[OUTRO – gentle children’s chorus over swelling strings]
-So let the music move
-Wherever hearts are spun
-For nobody can claim the light
-You can’t copystrike the sun
