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, doesn't 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. |

King, where are your people now?
Chained and pacified. Tried in vain 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 in vain to show them how. And for that you died. |

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. |

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 |

There's no-one coming with that freedom train.
There's nowhere you can go where you feel no pain. Take the blinkers off you eye's, The power is in your hand. Stop waiting for your ticket to the promised land. There ain't no heaven and there ain't no hell. Except the one we're in, and you know to well There's no-one waiting on, Waiting on a higher high. Don't let the only world you're ever gonna live in pass you by.

You might believe, and still you feel the chase has just begun.
That you must reach that horizon before the setting of the sun. You chase the light in front of you, nightfall close behind. If you stop to catch your breath, you know what you will find. Chorus Don't slow down don't touch the ground. You know what you will find. That old grey man in tattered clothes following behind. No time to stop, don't go to sleep, prepare to pay the cost. The hours and minutes are passing by, another day is lost. Impatience is a virtue, catch me if you can. The seconds have been ticking by since your life began |

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 but 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 underprevileged stare I'm a beggar on the corner can no one spare a dime I'm the child that never learns to read 'cus no one's spared the time. Refrain I'm the murderer the victim I'm licensed with a gun I'm a sad and bruised old lady in an alley in the slums I'm a middle aged business man with a chronic heart disease I'm another teenage suicide in a street that has no trees. Refrain I'm a starving third-world mother I'm a refugee without a home I'm a housewife hooked on valium I'm a pensioner alone I'm a cancer ridden spectre that's covering the earth I'm another hungry baby I'm an accident of birth. Refrain |

Red red wine goes to my head
Makes me forget that I still need you so Red red wine It's up to you All I can do I've done Memories won't go Memories won't go I have sworn every time Thoughts of you would leave my head I was wrong, now I've found Just one thing makes me forget... Red red wine Stay close to me Don't let me be alone It's tearing apart My blue blue heart I have sworn every time Thoughts of you would leave my head I was wrong, now I've found Just one thing makes me forget... Red red wine Stay close to me Don't let me be alone It's tearing apart My blue blue heart repeat last verse |

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. |

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 so" You did what 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 stabben in the back and there's salt in the wound Then it's time to move along Chorus No more spanners in the works, all the work's been done Had your face rubbed in the dirt On show for everyone But believe me, if it happens again I'm leaving If it stays the same I'm gone When compromise is the song that you sing It's been going on too long. Chorus |

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 seize the control from your hands We will fan the flame Of our anger and pain And you'll feel the shame For what you do in god's name 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 rhythms ring The voice of our forefathers sing Forward africa run Our day of freedom has come For me and for you Amandla awethu 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 |

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.

I'm sitting here praying that you weren't just saying
당신이 그렇게 말하지 않았길 기원하며 여기 앉아 있어요 Leaving tomorrow was What you had planned 당신은 내일 떠나기로 되어 있죠 No point in pretending, 아닌 척 해봐야 소용없어요 I know that it's ending 이것이 우리의 끝이라는 걸 아는데 I just wanna know where the ending began 다만 알고 싶어요 대체 어디서 이런 파국이 시작됐는지 * chorus Where did I go wrong to make it like this 일이 이 지경이 되도록 내가 어디서 잘못했던가 No warmth in your body, no touch in your kiss 당신의 따뜻한 체온을 느낄 수 없고, 키스도 할 수 없다니 Holding you now hurts more than it should 지금 당신을 안고 있는 게 너무나도 가슴 아파요 If I let you go, girl, You'll be gone for good 만일 당신을 가게 두면 영원히 떠나 버릴 텐데 I thought you had saved me, 당신이 날 구해줬다고 생각했어요 the love that you gave me 당신이 준 사랑은 The sweetest loving in all of the land 이 세상 최고의 달콤한 사랑이었죠 But you've taken my heart, 하지만 당신은 내 마음을 빼앗은 후 and you've torn it apart 내 가슴을 아프게 하고 And it's crumbled to dust in the palm of your hand 아무 것도 아닌 것처럼 산산히 부숴버렸어요 * chorus There's nothtin' worth sayin' 말해봤자 아무 소용없어요 I know you're not staying 당신이 머물지 않으리란 걸 알기에 Might as well face it, 차라리 받아들이겠어요 It's out of my hand 내가 어쩔 수 없는 일이니까요 No point in pretending, 아닌 척 해봐야 소용없어요 I know that it's ending 이게 끝이라는 걸 알아요 I just wanna know where the ending began 다만 알고 싶어요 대체 어디서 이런 파국이 시작됐는지 |

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... |

I had to meet you here today

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, doesn't 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. |

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 so" You did what 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 stabben in the back and there's salt in the wound Then it's time to move along Chorus No more spanners in the works, all the work's been done Had your face rubbed in the dirt On show for everyone But believe me, if it happens again I'm leaving If it stays the same I'm gone When compromise is the song that you sing It's been going on too long. Chorus |

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 (chorus) 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 (chorus) 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... |

Red red wine goes to my head
Makes me forget that I still need you so Red red wine It's up to you All I can do I've done Memories won't go Memories won't go I have sworn every time Thoughts of you would leave my head I was wrong, now I've found Just one thing makes me forget... Red red wine Stay close to me Don't let me be alone It's tearing apart My blue blue heart I have sworn every time Thoughts of you would leave my head I was wrong, now I've found Just one thing makes me forget... Red red wine Stay close to me Don't let me be alone It's tearing apart My blue blue heart repeat last verse |

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. When you open your mouth you don't talk, you shout And you give everybody the blame, But when they catch you up, They will shut you up And you got no one to blame 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. When you out on the street, You practice lies and deceit And you scandalize my name But when I catch you up I'm gonna pull you up I'm gonna check-out inside your brain 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. 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 |

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 |

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. |

A smile for every passing car
And when they stop with door ajar She shrugs and whispers que sera And turns her thoughts to the pillow Her face is etched with memories She finds now joy amid the sleaze It's hard when you've been paid to please So she turns her thoughts to the pillow Chorus Daylight comes she rests her head The beauty of an empty bed She dreams of happy days instead Of brooding on tomorrow She swapped her dreams of shining knights For pushers, bars and money fights For nameless faces in red light So she turns her head to the pillow Those black eyes don't hurt any more She's heard the jokes and jibes before She's felt the long arm of the law So she turns her head to the pillow Chorus Daylight comes ..... Etc Taking drugs was not for fun It made her feel like going on But now she hurts when its all gone And she turns her head to the pillow She take a blade and breaks her skin Sweet life force flows from within The white clouds in her head grow dim And she turns her head to the pillow Chorus Sunlight creeps across her head Pale beauty in a crimson bed No dreams of happy days ahead She'll have no more tomorrows |

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 seize the control from your hands We will fan the flame Of our anger and pain And you'll feel the shame For what you do in god's name 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 rhythms ring The voice of our forefathers sing Forward africa run Our day of freedom has come For me and for you Amandla awethu 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 |

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 but 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 underprevileged stare I'm a beggar on the corner can no one spare a dime I'm the child that never learns to read 'cus no one's spared the time. Refrain I'm the murderer the victim I'm licensed with a gun I'm a sad and bruised old lady in an alley in the slums I'm a middle aged business man with a chronic heart disease I'm another teenage suicide in a street that has no trees. Refrain I'm a starving third-world mother I'm a refugee without a home I'm a housewife hooked on valium I'm a pensioner alone I'm a cancer ridden spectre that's covering the earth I'm another hungry baby I'm an accident of birth.
