Lyrics

The law condemns a man or woman
Who steals the goose from off the common
But leaves the greater villain loose
Who steals the common from off the goose
The law demands that we atone
When we take things we do not own
But leaves the lords and ladies fine
Who take things that are yours and mine
The law condemns a man or woman
Who steals the goose from off the common
But leaves the greater villain loose
Who steals the common from off the goose
The poor and wretched don't escape
If they conspire the law to break
This must be so, but they endure
Those who conspire to make the law
The law condemns a man or woman
Who steals the goose from off the common
But leaves the greater villain loose
Who steals the common from off the goose
The law condemns the man or woman
Who steals the goose from off the common
But geese will still a common lack
Until they go and steal it back
