Change The Man
Don't talk to me about ban the bomb
Don't talk to me about who's side I'm on
Replace the system with one just the same
Don't you know that we are all to blame
It's so easy as an armchair blamer
Get off your seat and make a personal change sir
Can't change the system by smashing it down
Inside route personal revolution
Chorus
Change the Man
Rip out the root
Let's get rid of this insanity
When the mothers had told the kids straight
When the fathers felt no more hate
When a man can walk down the street without fear
Then thing must change and it's not too late
Learning How to Love
Creeping through your bedroom door
Just after all the lights go out
Feeling the warmth of your body
And the sweetness of your mouth
Set the alarm again for 5 am
Uneasy sleep will soon be following
Creeping back to my own bed again
I will see you in our uneasy morning
Chorus
Learning how to love
Learning how to love
Learning how to love
Learn how to love
Sitting down at breakfast time
A silence always fills the air
Many things that should be said
Are ending in a vacant stare
And they know just what is going on
But make us feel like we are criminals
Our only wish is learning how to love
Just a small word would make us feel it's natural
Set the alarm again for 5 am
Uneasy sleep will soon be following
Creeping back to my own bed again
I will see you in our uneasy morning
Let if Flow
Where are the new rebels
We didn't ask for this
Trying to be something different
We will fight the bigots
Fight them with our reason
Fight them with our constancy
Chorus
River, our river, let it flow
This is our lamp light
Let it glow
River, river, let it flow
This is our reason
Let it grow
Don't keep looking back
Living in the past
Never built a golden future. Have,
Have faith in the species
We've come to far to fail
I don't believe in our extinction
Everyone of us
Has got to take it on
Don't build a dam on evolution. There,
There are those who'd like us
To cling on to the past
Wallowing in their past glories
River, (don't)
Our river, (don't look back)
Let it flow (we might fall)
This is our lamp light
Let it glow (have faith in the future)
River, (don't)
River, (don't look back)
Let it flow (we might fall)
This is our reason
Let it grow
Dig This Well Deep
With one thing and another
Banged my head against the wall
Always looking over my shoulder
And it makes no sense at all
Chorus
I'm going to dig this well deep
It's a promise I must keep
I'm going to dig this well deep
'Cos I want to find water
I'm going to dig this well deep
Going to sow before I reap
I'm going to dig this well deep
'Cos I want to find water
Cynics try to hold me in the graveyard of their egos
Put my dreams out with the trashman and they left me on a plateau
Holding on and keeping strong
When you are walking on a tightrope
Holding on and keeping strong
When you are wilted down to your last last hope
See it through to a conclusion even if it leads to nowhere
Sometimes there is no solution but the water tastes as good there
Roll Right Up
Will the moon keep shining on
Can you stop the world from turning
Stop running away from things that might fail you
You have what you need you are the one
You can't hold a person down
'Cos the truth will find its opening
You must take it on the things you must feel
We all feel the same you are the one
Chorus
Roll right up and feel it see the world
Prison doors are open wide
See the world you need it
You were born with something special
You were forged in open fire
Stop running away form things that might fail you
You have what you need you are the one
Power of the Media
Flying through the airwaves
Living through the printed word
Flasher in the living room
Guru of the seen and heard
Who decides what we get to hear
Fuzzy round the edges or making it clear
Blinding us with those facts
Chorus
The power of the media will make up our minds
The power of the media will take down our minds
Written on the black and white page
We can't believe what we read
Tarting up reality has become the new rage
Who said the truth is stranger than fiction
A few white lies for a nice little sensation
Buy up a paper you can influence the nation
Little box in the corner
A picture worth a thousand words
But who chooses which pictures we see
Who decides on the commentary
Keeping people in a state of confusion
There's a thin line between facts and illusion
Diverting our attention from big brother in the city
When will we get to the real nitty gritty
Rubber Morals
Quickly checking what company he's in
Absorbing values like a chameleon
His rhythm and his method have got out of line
When you sit on a fence you get a sore behind
Must not upset the apple cart
He'll choose your views today
Having some kinda conflict
Seems to get right in his way
Chorus
Whoa...Rubber Morals
Whoa...Rubber Morals
Whoa...Rubber Morals, Plasticine ideals
See how this one feels
The men in St. Peters will not agree to a slipping
on his conscience like he slips on a johnnie
He's a part time socialist and a part time tycoon
Flags of convenience fly in his cocoon
Must not upset the apple cart
Preserve the status quo
His heart felt convictions
Left a long time ago
A sign over his bed will testify
Is there nothing in his life from which he'd live or die
A pale shade of grey lines a vacant head
With our condom-nation you are blessed
Must not upset the apple cart
He'll choose your views today
Having some kinda conflict
Seems to get right in his way
Have Your Heard the News?
Flying thru the airwaves
Living thru the printed word
Flasher in the living room
Guru of the seen and heard
Who decides what we get to hear?
Fuzzy 'round the edges
Or making it clear?
Blinding us with those facts
Blinding us with those facts
Chorus
Have You Heard the News?
Wo wo wo wooo
Have You Heard the News?
Written on the black and white page
We can't believe what we read
Doubting of reality
Has become the new rage
Who says that truth is stranger than fiction?
Money [it talks] and it will cause less friction
A few white lies for a nice little sensation
(chorus)
Little box in the corner
A picture worth a thousand words
But who chooses which pictures we see?
Who decides on the commentary?
Keeping people in a state of confusion
There's a thin line between facts and illusion
Diverting our attention from Big Brother in the city
CHORUS
When will we get, when will we get to the real nitty gritty,
nitty gritty, nitty gritty
when will we get to it, when will we get to it now, when will we get to
it
when will we get to it?
Living thru the printed word
[Flasher] in the living room
Guru of the seen and heard
Who decides what we get to hear?
Fuzzy 'round the edges
Or making it clear?
Blinding us with those facts oh
Blinding us with those facts
(chorus)
Have you heard, have you heard?
(chorus)
