Nature of Man
05:10

Sunni against Shiite, black on black
Man against a woman, what ya think about that?
Protest on a Catholic, persecute the Jew
Can't help the neighbor, the neighbor might sue
Blame it on the Bible, blame it on the war
Blame it on the governor that you voted for
Dictator dining on the Eagles purse
Red moon is rising up above the Earth
What ya think about that?
What ya think about that?
Militant in Parihaka, a boy with a gun
Told to pull the trigger against the peaceful ones
Kimi got a mushroom, Kimi want to play
A red star in Tibet, do what I say
Zimbabwe devil, Zimbabwe cry
Tutsi neighbor come, Tutsi neighbor die
32 Virginia, all jealous rage
But who sold them bullets to the boy who got bullied?
What ya think about that?
What ya think about that?
This crazy crazy nature of Man
To rule with his dick and the back of his hand
Accumulate wealth as much as he can

I have a corrupt demeanor
I am a material girl
I want to drive a beamer
Don't give a fuck about the rest of the world

Mary doesn't take coffee first thing
She doesn't like to think about
where it cam from
And as she starts around her town
She starts to smile 'cos she knows
They call her crazy
She calls them children
They call her crazy
She calls them children
Mary doesn't mind dirt on her bread
They both belong to her
No she'd never turn her back on them
She starts to smile 'cos she knows
They call her crazy
She calls them children
They call her crazy
She calls them children
She sings 'la-la-la-la-la'
She sings 'la-la-la-la-la'
She gonna turn her back on us
their aint no love
we done her so wrong
She gonna have the final say
come what may
we beat her too long

The Seed
06:41
|

|
He was the wind from the North
Blew down over the mountains
She was the flower deep in the valley
She dreamed of the ocean
And I was a seed in the womb
of her dream of a seed
He said -
come along, come along, come along
the streets are all neon
He said -
sing along, sing along, sing along
I'm looking for love
She was the flower deep in the valley
She dreamed of the ocean
And I was a seed in the womb
of her dream of a seed
And oh I'll grow

Holy Ground
06:08
|
|||
|
Something inside this vision, make me wanna move my feet
and wave my hands up high above this holy ground
Something inside so primal
make me wanna open up my soul to this world
we can do no harm
No matter creed or culture, can't help yourself
find your body got to moving with the drumming man
A melody from heaven, caress your face
We are one, a little push gonna take you there
This thing I cannot touch
This thing I cannot see
Can make me feel so good
This thing called music

Next Time
04:37
|
|||
|
Breath, denied to breathe
denied everything
Denied the pain, the pain
and joy of living
Feet, earth beneath your feet
running down the street
With your friends, friends
that you did not meet
This time, this time, this time
Hands, never felt water run
never felt the sun upon your face
The sun will still be shining
Next time, next time, next time

Pendulum

Hey, here's a thought for the CEO
The one at the top, from the many down below
You could be like Mr. Morgan
He gave it all away
A six figure savior
with a six figure save, yeah
The Pendulum swings
the other way
The other way
don't you know
Oh mother mercy, she cries in shame
The greed and the apathy
Lucy's in the background with a smile upon his face
Sow them seeds, water with love
Teach stupidity of war, of egos and more
There's a hole in my roof and I got no bucket
The Pendulum swings
the other way
The other way
don't you know

Peaceful Man
06:31
|

|
To have a dream, a feather dream
Of a fairer hand but no weaker man
Cast no stone, you taught to comprehend
The wisdom to let go of difference
a candle on a stand
Peaceful man, you're not forgotten
Peaceful man, you're not forgotten
Still we fight, turn blood to gold
You're not forgotten
No more so much eye for an eye
And yesterday's ways are now a relic
And the sun will rise and fall again
Many times as it's done before
we learn to listen
Peaceful man, you're not forgotten
Peaceful man, you're not forgotten
Still we fight, turn blood to gold
You're not forgotten
