The levellers - Riverflow
because i couldn't find any videos of this long that wernt live, so i decided to make this, if you want any others doing message me and ill do them lyrics- I met you in 82, over a crate of beer and not a few I cracked a can and so did you, we're going to change the world The ghetto kings of downside town-the estates and parks of our hallowed ground Doing anything that we found, and on the river flowed You'd take a drink from Rev. Jimmy Jones You'd cross the street on the path the gunman roams Thrown aside and left to waste, that was you - you knew your place Wander round, get off your face, and on the river flowed On and on the river flow - we are the undertow On and on the river flow - we are the undertow I don't know how you made it through all the smoke and brew you do It sure has left its mark on you but you're still with us today Life goes on and round we go and words can kill these things I know Sometimes you cut deeply so, but on the river flows You'd set the table for barber Sweeney Todd You'd clip the wings of any rising god But man can't live on hope alone, it can be cut all that is grown Broke your spirit but not your bones and on the river flows CHORUS You're working now - forced to the race I know it left a bitter taste But the rising tide had covered your face Nothing you could do But I still remember the day you said That the river flowing through my head Would take me far or leave me dead And all you said was true

Levellers-Carry Me
The other day, It occured to me that Levellers never made a video for Carry Me. I thought this was very strange because it was their first single. And it's because it was their first single that I have made this as both a tribute to them and a breif history of them. Long Live Levellers!

The Levellers - World Freak Show
In the past the fools would pay, To see the freaks of the day. The contradictions of the norm, The bizarre, the wonderful and deformed No need for the tents And the cages now, The world comes to my eyes. In front of my TV circus a freak show in disguise. Circles and roundabouts. How much did you know? Going round and coming back, The world freak show. Swings and revolutions. How much did you know? Going round an coming back, The world freak show. Another tree is coming down, Another harpooned whale is drowned Another child's belly needs feeding, On land of the fast food chain is bleeding. And we bought our new green wool We pulled it over our eyes, And the circus goes on All around. A freak show in disguise. Circles and roundabouts. How much did you know? Going round and coming back, The world freak show. Swings and revolutions. How much did you know? Going round an coming back, The world freak show. Peristroika, reform, glasnot, Hardcore sell, overhead cost. News at ten, the house, Big Ben, Half truth, now and then. Pol Pot, border, massacre, slaughter, Rainforest, the president's daughter. Irradiate, evacuate, Use, abuse, manipulate. The people's will, their bellies full, Multinational, kill, kill, kill. Dead dictator, snipers retreat, People claim the power seat. Wall comes down, the people stand up, Cross the border, customs shut, Forklift, airlift, foreign aid, Pockets lined, an army blockade. Evolution, progress, regress, Power, possesion, energy harness, Economy <b>...</b>

The Levellers - The Game
The bar was dark, quiet and still And nothing could be heard, The dust lay undisturbed. At a table near the back, underneath a fan, Two mean shared a joke about the normal folk. The cards are on the table, The winner takes it all, The game is nearly over, One man about to fall. Well, I don't believe in heaven, I don't believe in hell, I don't believe what I am seeing, This is no game, can't you tell. "I'm calling your bluff!", the first man said. The people went to war, they always wanted more. And how could I ever fail to lose? They can't take it any more, they want to end the score. The second man showed his hand, Some walked barefoot across the land, And many have seen the future, And are doing the best they can. But I don't believe in heaven, I don't believe in hell, I don't believe what I am seeing, This is no game, can't you tell. I don't believe in heaven, I don't believe in hell, I don't believe what I am seeing, This is no game, can't you tell. The clock ticked past the final hour. Now which of the men had lost and what was the cost? The glasses now were empty and gone, To wash away the shame, and take away the pain. One man left the table, The other was head in hands. He paid the bill for the defeated, The only thing that's left that stands. Well, I don't believe in heaven, I don't believe in hell, I don't believe what I am seeing, This is no game, can't you tell. I don't believe in heaven, I don't believe in hell, I don't believe what I am seeing, This is no <b>...</b>

Levellers, True Levellers, and The Diggers of 1649 (1 of 3)
The Levellers were a relatively loose alliance of radicals and freethinkers who came to prominence during the period of instability that characterized the English Civil War of 1642 - 1649. What bound these people together was the general belief that all men were equal; since this was the case, then a government could only have legitimacy if it was elected by the people. The Leveller demands were for a secular republic, abolition of the House of Lords, equality before the law, the right to vote for all, free trade, the abolition of censorship, freedom of speech, the abolition of tithes and tolls, and the absolute right for people to worship whatever religion they chose, or none at all. This program was published as "The Agreement of the People". The Levellers argued that since God had created all men as equals, the land belonged to all the people as a right. Their program was, then, essentially an attempt to restore the situation that they believed had existed previous to the Norman Conquest in 1099; they wanted to establish a 'commonwealth' in which the common people would be in control of their own destiny without the intervention of a King, a House of Lords and other potential oppressors. It is hardly surprising, given this program of demands, that the rich and powerful felt threatened by the Levellers. This is particularly so, given that some of the Leveller demands, almost 400 years on, have still not been met! In 1649 Gerrard Winstanley and fourteen others published <b>...</b>
