Readying to bury your father and your mother,
What did you think when you lost another?
I used to wonder why did you bother,
Distanced from one, blind to the other?
Listen here my sister and my brother
What would you care if you lost the other?
I always wonder why did we bother,
Distanced from one, deaf to the other.
Oh, oh, oh but sweetness follows
It's these little things, they can pull you under.
Live your life filled with joy and wonder.
I always knew this altogether thunder
Was lost in our little lives.
Oh, oh, oh but sweetness follows.
Oh, oh, oh but sweetness follows.
It's these little things, they can pull you under.
Live your life filled with joy and thunder.
Yeah, yeah we were altogether
Lost in our little lives.
Oh. Oh. Ah.
Oh, oh, oh but sweetness follows.
Oh, oh, oh but sweetness follows.(lyrics & music: Kay Hartung)
The white man came across the sea.
Exterminate peace and spirit.
They stole their dreams with guns and hate.
And then they prayed to the Lord and they said.
Fight! Fight! Fight!
They chased away the heritage of land.
They broke contracts to satisfy their greed.
They populated all kinds of holy places.
They crammed last hopes in deadly camps.
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Stand up and shout the pain you feel.
Fulfil your dreams they have destroyed.
Cry out your rights and start to fight.
Fight! Fight! Fight!
Fight! Fight! Fight!
