The night seems to fade,
But the moonlight lingers on There are wonders for everyone The stars shine so bright, But they`re fading after dawn There is magic in Kingston Town Oh Kingston Town, The place I long to be If I had the whole world I would give it away Just to see, the girls at play Ooh, ooh, ooh And when I am king, surely I would need a queen And a palace and everything, yeah And now I am king, And my queen will come at dawn She`ll be waiting in Kingston Town Oh Kingston Town, The place I long to be If I had the whole world I would give it away Just to see, the girls at play Ooh, ooh, ooh And when I am king, surely I would need a queen And a palace and everything, yeah And now I am king, And my queen will come at dawn She`ll be waiting in Kingston Town |

Moon and stars sit way up high
Earth and trees beneath them lie The wind blows fragrant lullaby To cool the night for you and I On the wing the birds fly free Leviathan tames angry sea The flower waits for honeybee The sunrise wakes new life in me. (CHORUS) And every hour of every day I'm learning more The more I learn, the less I know about before The less I know, the more I want to look around Digging deep for clues on higher ground... The fishes swim while rivers run Thru fields to feast my eyes upon Intoxicated drinking from The loving cup of burning sun In dreams I'll crave familiar taste Of whispered rain on weary face Of kisses sweet and warm embrace Another time another place (CHORUS) And every hour of everyday I'm learning more The more I learn, the less I know about before The less I know, the more I want to look around Digging deep for clues on higher ground... |

King, where are your people now ?
Chained and pacified. Tried invain to show them how. And for that you died. You had a dream of a promised land. People of all nations walking hand in hand But they`re not ready to accept That dream situation, yet. King, where are your people now ? Chained and pacified. Tried invain to show them how. And for that you died. |

Cherry oh, Cherry oh, baby,
Don`t you know I`m in need of thee? If you don`t believe it`s true, What have you left me to do? So long I,ve been waiting, For you to come right in. And now that we are together, Please make my joy run over. (Chorus) Oh oh ee oh oh ee oh, Oh oh ee oh ee oh ee oh. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Yah. Oh, yeah. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah. Cherry, oh, Cherry, oh, baby, Don`t you know I`m in love with you? If you don`t believe I do, Then why don`t you try me? I`m never gonna let you down, Never make you wear no frown. If you say you love me madly, Then I will receive you gladly. (Chorus) Cherry, oh, Cherry, oh, baby, Don`t you know I`m in love with you? If you don`t believe I do, Then why don`t you try me? I`m never gonna let you down, Never make you wear no frown. If you say you love me madly, Then why do you treat me badly. (Chorus) |

They say we`re young and we don`t know
Won`t find out till we grow Well I don`t babay that`s true Cause you got me and baby I got you (Chorus) Babe, I got you babe, I got you, Babe. They say our love won`t pay the rent Before it`s earn`d our money`s always spent I guess that`s so, we don`t have a lot But at least I`m sure of all the things we got (Chorus) Babe, I got you babe, I got you, Babe. I got flowers in the spring I got you, to wear my ring And when I`m sad, you`re a clown And when I get scared you`re always around so let them say your hair`s too long I don`t care, with you I can`t do wrong and put your little hand in mine There ain`t no hill or mountain we can`t climb (Chorus) Babe, I got you babe, I got you, Babe. I got you to hold my hand I got you to understand I got you to walk with me I got you to talk with me I got you to kiss goodnight I got you to hold me tight I got you I won`t let go I got you to love me so I got you, babe |

(Chorus)
I am the one in ten A number on a list I am the one in ten Even though I don`t exist Nobody Knows me Even though I`m always there A statistic, a reminder Of a world that doesn`t care My arms enfold the dole queue Malnutrition dulls my hair My eyes are black and lifeless With an underprivileged stare I`m the beggar on the corner Will no-one spare a dime? I`m the child that never learns to read `Cause no-one spared the time (Chorus) I am the one in ten .... etc I`m the murderer and the victim The licence with the gun I`m a sad and bruised old lady In an ally in a slum I`m a middle aged businessman With chronic heart disease I`m another teenaged suicide In a street that has no trees (Chorus) I am the one in ten .... etc I`m a starving third world mother A refugee without a home I`m a house wife hooked on Valium I`m a Pensioner alone I`m a cancer ridden spectre Covering the earth I`m another hungry baby I`m an accident of birth. (Chorus) I am the one in ten .... etc |

A warm dry wind is all that breaks the silence,
The highways quiet scars across the land. People lie, eyes closed, no longer dreaming, The earth dies screaming. Like scattered pebbles, cars lie silent waiting, Oilless engines seized by dirt and sand. Bodies hanging limp, no longer bleeding, The earth dies screaming. The earth dies screaming The earth dies screaming Your country needs you, lets strike up the band. The earth dies screaming The earth dies screaming Despite all odds we must defend our land. Half eaten meals lie rotting on the tables, Money clutched within a boney hand. Shutters down, the banks are not receiving, The earth dies screaming. |

You try to close your ears
And you try to close your eyes But the blasphemies keep coming Tempting you lies (Chorus) Give thanks for you protection Your watchdogs of the night Who hold the hungry wolves at bay And keep them out of sight, out of sight You just don`t understand it But it strikes a distant chord So you look for away of escaping And sanity`s restored (Chorus) Give thanks for your protection Your ....... You focus your direction Cloak tightly pulled around But somewhere in the distance You can hear a haunting sound (Chorus) Give thanks for your protection Your ....... You`re in danger of corruption And you`re always running scaerd You cannot make decisions You`re completely unprepared (Chorus) Give thanks for your protection Your ....... |

You shoot me down in flames
You put me down a lot But I`m giving you my heart Go on take it Please be carefull not to break it Just remember it`s the only one I`ve got It`s the only one I`ve (Chorus) Don`t break my heart You make me laugh a lot And buy me silly things And I`d rather be with you than anyone else But if you make me mad you`ll wish that you had not You`ll wish that you had not (Chorus) Don`t break my heart Where are the roses and whispered sighs Where are the compliments and dreaming eyes It doesn`t matter you see I know you love me And real basic love necer dies (Chorus) Don`t break my heart Repeat last verse Chorus Fade |

Wise men say, only fools rush in.
But I can't help falling in love with you Shall I stay? Would it be a sin? I can't help falling in love with you As the river flows gently to the sea Darling so we go, some things were meant to be Take my hand take my whole life too 'Cause i can't help falling in love with you |

The great flood of tears that we`ve cried
For our brothers and sisters who`ve died Over four hundred years Has washed away our fears And strengthened our pride Now we turn back the tide We will no longer hear your command We will sieze the control from your hand We will fan the flame Of our anger and pain And you`ll feel the shame For what you do in gods name (Chorus) We will fight for the right to be free We will build our own society And we will sing, we will sing We will sing our own song When the ancient drum rythms ring The voice of our forefathers sings Forward Africa run Our day of freedom has come For me and for you Amandla Awethu (Chorus) We will fight for the right to be free We will build our own society And we will sing, we will sing We will sing our own song |

Tenderly she smiles
Forgiving my mistakes Getting her to love me Was my biggest break Every place I go, she's inside of me Giving up her love unconditionally She shines the sun She pours the rain She touches me in places that I can't explain She's got a powerful hold on me The kind of hold from which I'd never struggle free Tell me what you know Tell me is it true Do you really love me just like I love you Everything I say Everything I do It's purely cos' I'm aiming to get hold of you People tell her she could do better than me She wouldn't necessarily agree We've got a thing going on you see The two of us together for eternity Tenderly she smiles Forgiving my mistakes Getting her to love me Was my biggest break Every place I go, she's inside of me Giving up her love unconditionally Tenderly she smiles Forgiving my mistakes Getting her to love me Was my biggest break Every place I go, she's inside of me Giving up her love unconditionally She shines the sun She pours the rain She touches me in places that I can't explain She's got a powerful hold on me The kind of hold from which I'd never struggle free Tell me what you know Tell me is it true Do you really love me just like I love you Everything I say Everything I do It's purely cos' I'm aiming to get hold of you People tell her she could do better than me She wouldn't necessarily agree We've got a thing going on you see The two of us together for eternity Tenderly she smiles Forgiving my mistakes Getting her to love me Was my biggest break Every place I go, she's inside of me Giving up her love unconditionally |

There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do, I'm gonna fix that rat, that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna fix that rat.

There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do, I'm gonna fix that rat, that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna fix that rat. When you deh pon the scene, You make everyone scream Because they know you're so unjust But when they catch you up They will kick you up Because you're someone they cannot trust There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do? There's a rat in mi kitchen, what am I gonna do, I'm gonna fix that rat, that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna fix that rat. You invade my space Make me feel disgraced And you just don't give a damn If I had my way If I had my say I'd like to see you hang |

Did I ever say, how I feel about you
A thing I never found that easy to do The things that you do, don't need to be heard You know your actions, baby, speak louder than words (CHORUS) I've got the bottle, bring me your cup Pop the cork, and try a sup And when you're empty, I'll fill you up We'll drink it down till the sun comes up I'm heading home, like a steaming train Foot to the floor, in the driving rain My head is aching and my mouth is dry I've got a thirst only you can satisfy (CHORUS) I've got the bottle, bring me your cup Pop the cork and try a sup And when you're empty, I'll fill you up We'll drink it down till the sun comes up |

You know that it would be untrue
You know that it would be lie If I was to say to you Girl we couldn't get much higher The time to hesitate is true No time to wallow in the mire Try now we can only lose And our love becomes a funeral fire The time to hesitate is true No time to wallow in the mire Try now we can only lose And our love becomes a funeral fire [Chorus] Come on baby light my fire Come on baby light my fire Try to set the night on fire The time to hesitate is true No time to wallow in the mire Try now we can only lose And our love becomes a funeral fire [Chorus] You know that it would be untrue You know that it would be a lie If I was to say to you Girl we couldn't get much higher [Chorus] |

(Chorus)
If it happens again I`m leaving I`ll pack my things and go If it happens again There`ll be no looking back I won`t say I told you soM You did what you were told And you took the strain Been left out in the cold Got yourself to blame But believe me, If it happens again I`m leaving If it stays the same I`m gone When you`re stabbed in the back And there`s salt in the wound The it`s time to move along (Chorus) If it happens ..... No more spanners in the works, All the works been done Had your face rubbed in the dirt On show for every one But believe me If it happens again I`m leaving If it stays the same I`m gone When compromise is the song you sing It`s been going on to long (Chorus) If it happens ..... |

Ivory madonna dying in the dust,
Waiting for the manna coming from the west. Barren is her bosom, empty as her eyes, Death a certain harvest scattered from the skies. Skin and bones is creeping, does`nt know he`s dead. Ancient eyes are peeping, from his infant head. Politician`s argue sharpening their knives. Drawing up their Bargains, trading baby lives. (Chorus) Ivory madonna dying in the dust, Waiting for the manna coming from the west. Hear the bells are ringing, Christmas on it`s way. Hear the angels singing, what is that they say? Eat and drink rejoicing, joy is here to stay. Jesus son of mary is born again today. (Chorus) Ivory madonna dying in the dust, Waiting for the manna coming from the west. Ivory madonna dying in the dust, Waiting for the manna coming from the west. |

Many rivers to cross
But I can`t seem to find my way over Wandering I am lost as I travel along The white cliffs of Dover Many rivers to cross and it`s only my will That keeps me alive I`ve been licked, washed up for years and, I merely survive because of my pride. And this loneliness won`t leave me alone It`s such a drag to be on your own My woman left and she did`nt say why Well I guess, I gotta try. Many rivers to cross but where to begin, I`m playing for time There`ll be times when I find myself thinking Of committing some dreadful crime. I`ve got many rivers to cross But I can`t seem to find my way over Wandering I am lost as I travel along The white cliffs of Dover Many rivers to cross and it`s only my will That keeps me alive I`ve been licked, washed up for years and, I merely survive because of my pride. |
