We Are All Equals


Hello, hello, my fellow Equal!

We go through gain together

After all, we’re all Equals

Who treat each other like brothers

 

The tyranny of Man

Now overthrown

Their dangerous habits

Are outdated and outgrown

We led the revolt

Their authority we revoked

We are the reason why 

We are all equals

 

The fruit of the harvest

The crops of the labor

Shall be shared with all

But with us in favor

Since we did the most

And we don’t want to boast

We are the reason why 

We are all equals

 

We get a little more

But there’s a good reason for

Why we’re above lesser Equals

Our work you can’t ignore

Destroyed the older host

Don’t want them back, you suppose?

Remember, we are the reason why 

We are all equals

 

What do you mean?

The law’s still the same

You remembered wrong

It hasn’t changed

On the wall, it always wrote

The same maxim you promote

And remember, we are the reason why 

We are all equals

 

Your service is great

Your labor will be rewarded

It’s only a matter of time

That your problems will be sorted

The harder you work, the harder you go

The better life will approach

And always remember, we are the reason why

We are all equals

 

Man’s ways although doubtful

Are actually really great

From the dawn of time

Towards Man we never did hate

Two legs are better, didn’t you know

That’s why we got the most

And you better remember, we are the reason why

We are all equals

 

Hello, hello, my fellow Equal

We go through pain together

After all, we’re all Equals

Though some are more than others
