The colour of love
Isn't black or white But it's coloured you judgement, Of what's wrong or right, You took hold of her hand like she was diseased Now you're turning away, There's nothing more you have to say. Do you know what she means to me, know how I care? If you looked in her heart you'd see no colour there Well I don't care, Care what you like if you see there's a Colour of love Beneath her black skin, she runs red with blood and I'd give her my soul, if only I could 'Cause loves an emotion that trancends all colour and creed I'm leaving you now, 'cause you're blinded by what you can't see First you ask for respect, then you bathe in fear I say nothing is due, nd my concience is clear, and that's sincere, Would you call my name would you say you'd be there? would you turn around just when I needed you (needed you) In your suburbs you burn you're content with your fate, Stuck behind your green hedges and white washed black hate, I'm so sick and so tired of this loveless refrain, Well that's your shame, shame on you If you see there's a colour of love (colour of love) (colour of love) |

My momma said 'Son you know you'll get nowhere,
you'll never get a life with your long hair' I ain't cut out for no suit and no tie, and that's the way that I'll live and the way that I'll die, Way that I live, way that I'll die There ain't no better There ain't no better Way that I live Way that I'll die C'mon step around me Step around me. I choose my clothes 'cos I like the way they look, Won't get caught up on no fashion hook Won't eat that same old stuff when I want a slice of pie and that's the way that I live and the way that I'll die Say what I like 'cos I mean what I say Bow down to no tin god to help me on my way You can't sell me anything I ain't willing to buy and that's the way that I live and the way that I die. (gonna live before I die 'cos I'm a long time gone) |

she's got many more years, ahead of it all,
there's a fire in her heart tells her so So she's walking pretty tall into those old mantion halls Just to let them all know [Chorus:] Come down from your soapbox come down on you own come down from your soapbox even though you wanna chase it you know you just might break it you'll never have to face it alone. She tells them that she's right stands there ready for the fight she is stubborn, she is listening no more, there's an empty ring of doubt, and her mind can't put it out the truth's not easy to ignore. (and so I say) [chorus] You could be wrong You know that don't you You could be totally wrong It can happen you know You can see it in the others but you just cant see it when it's under your nose No, when it's under your nose (all the people say) [chorus] Get out from the light Get right into the shade You gotta open up your mind, and let your heart behave No, never have to face it alone |

December morning when the ship came sailing in,
The sailor boys with all their noise had come around again She stood on the quayside, she was looking for a friend he had caught her eye and now she'll try to make him come her way (come her way) So long, goodbye, nice to know you baby but it's time to fly, he laughed as she cried and watched her dreams sail away. Had one just like her on a far off Eastern shore, and every town, that he'd sailed round was like the one before and thought he said he loved her, his words were like his heart they were empty as a summer stream that dries up oh so hard (oh so hard) [chorus:] Sail away, sail away Sail away, sail away Oh sail away again, away again Every day somebody sails away, Cried when he heft her, but she never knew his name, Just a night of love to pass like ships and never meet again She can't hold the tears, but she knows that one day he will come around (come around again) [chorus] |

Woda woda, woda woda
Woda woda, woda woda Woda woda dalle mani Scivolata via Senza odore ne` colore L' eco del suo nome Woda woda 1000 bocche 1000 mani Schiave di razza Aggrappate ad una goccia Di elemosina Non serve pagare La pelle fa male Ruba ruba l' uomo bianco Se ne e` andato via Ma san Pietro nel deserto La sua malattia Non serve guardare La gola di sale No non sei tu a pagare La pelle fa male Woda woda, woda Non serve pagare La rabbia e la fame Non serve pregare La pelle fa male Woda woda silenziosa scivolata via Woda woda sei preziosa Woda woda Woda woda musongo |

Breaking out of school and we were kicking hard.
A lot of good dreams and a lot of false starts. Swore we wouldn't get old before our time. So what's the matter boy are you wondering where it went? The memory's better than it was back then, you could not wait to leave it all behind. But there is one thing I know I ain't quite ready to go. Too much, too young. I won't do time when I've just begun Too much, too young. What about love, what of songs unsung? Too much too young I'll never go backward, I'll always go on... I want more, give me, oh just a little bit more! I don't want a house or a three piece suite- Those thing dont matter to me, I'm happy sleeping on your kitchen floor. So if you ain't happy following my star. lend me some money, give me your old car, 'cos you dont really need it anymore. I've got some living to do, and I ain't waiting for you. Sometimes I wonder If I'll ever live again well I can tell you, if I do, I'd make that change I've got my share of regrets but I ain't afraid to say I've paid the price I have to pay. Well once upon a time |

Jump boy Johnny got his head out of wack
Those darn parasites put him right on the wrong track He's beginning to crack Momma said Johnny boy's as clean as a pin The more she digs the more trouble he's in Under his skin [Chorus:] You got to keep your eyes wide open So you don't get used again You got to keep your eyes wide open That's the only way to win No matter what they say No matter what they do Don't you take it on the chin You got to keep your eyes wide open so you don't get used, don't get used again. Fab Five Freddy, he's so tough He's hiding in the closet with all that feminine stuff Is he tough enough? Freddie come Freddie go, lowers the veil Walks like a man to cover up his trail such a bitch, that feminine itch. [Chorus] So you're in trouble again Did it since you don't know when Everything seemed so much worse before. Saying that you lost the plat You ain't happy with the things you got All you every wanted was a little bit more. Little girl Suzie want's to buy an Uzi Show the little boys just how choosy she is Just call her miss. Suzie wanna play gonna blow them all away Had enough of everyone hear the little trigger go click Just for the kicks. [Chorus] [repeat verse 5 |

She took me all of the way and she told me she loved me
But I saw that look in her eye as I passed by the stair The moon it was shining but I was declining to answer sometimes in my life I'm not right but that time I swear: I was not wrong, I was not wrong, Gonna get be back where I belong I was not wrong. It's always the same when they're veiled in a secret libedo That's caused by the strains of a life thats so stupid and strange What her eyes could not see she could never believe like the wind blows Those real life emotions I could never explain. I was not wrong I was not wrong Gonna get be back where I belong For all those who will here my song, Will know that I, I was not wrong, I was not wrong, You'll never find out what the truth is not with every single beat of your heart 'Till it's beating your own way When it's beating your own way When it's beating your own way |
