+[VERSE 1 – bright, earnest, strummy guitar]
+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
