I once knew a guy, obsessed with the afterlife
Oh what a terrible day that was, he realized he'd wasted all his time
Time was ticking by, and he'd been left behind
And as the clock tick-tocked his heart did stop and everything he had was fucked

And we know not what we do (Can you hear them call?)
Will we ever make it through?
As they watch us fall from the sky to the ground to the sea. Woe is me, woe is me, no one will save you now
We can only look away (away!)
We'll not be victims there'll be no victims of to speak
And only then will we be free
And up will rise the meek

And when we fall we will fall together
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
And where we roam we will roam forever
No one will understand what we meant.

The beaten and the bruised, forsaken, the abused
Oh what a glorious day we'll have rising up and claiming all our dues
The day will come as sure as the ever-setting sun
All of those that self-imposed will find themselves so indisposed

And we know not what we do (Can you hear their call?)
Will we ever make it through?
As they watch us fall from the sky to the ground to the sea
Woe is me, woe is me, no one will save you now
We can only look away (away!)
We will not be victims there'll be no victims of to speak
And only then will we be free
And up will rise the meek

And when we fall we will fall together
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
And where we roam we will roam forever
No one will understand what we meant

Now, with the line drawn in the wet sand
You need to tell us where to stand
Sitting waiting watching rotting everything they warned us of is true
Now tell me what we're all supposed to do

They're coming after all of us with everything they've got
With the fury of a soldier who will answer to his God
So how will we fight? All we have is logic and love on our side

And when we fall we will fall together
No one will catch us so we'll catch ourselves
And where we roam we will roam forever
No one will understand what we meant

Lyrics:

John Brown killed five slave holders by the Pottawatomie creek
John Brown killed five slave holders by the Pottawatomie creek
Cut them down with his switch board but he let the slaves go free

Good people of Missouri thought John Brown was insane
Good people of Missouri thought John Brown was insane
Meanwhile in their back yards they had human beings in chains

John Brown rose up early in the morning before the sun could rise
He had 200 rifles riding by his side
He said, "Now don't you weep now, Mary
Don't you weep for me
Going down to Harper's ferry, the US armory"

Give the guns [to the people]
Give the power [to the people]
Give the freedom [to the people]
Give the rights [to the people]
Gonna rise up [with the people]
Gonna march [with the people]
Gonna fight [for the people]
Liberate [for the people]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now

Oh Kansas bloody Kansas
What lies buried in your name. How much more blood must be shed before we wash away the shame
Oh someone tell me how long how long must we endure this sacrifice
Oh Kansas bloody Kansas someone tell me When will this suffice?

John Brown
They hung him and they laid him in his grave
John Brown
They hung him and they laid him in his grave
John Brown's lies a-moulderin'
But his spirit walks today

Give the guns [to the people]
Give the power [to the people]
Give the freedom [to the people]
Give the rights [to the people]
Gonna rise up [with the people]
Gonna march [with the people]
Gonna fight [for the people]
Liberate [all the people]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Give the guns [to the people]
Give the power [to the people]
Give the freedom [to the people]
Give the rights [to the people]
Gonna rise up [with the people]
Gonna march [with the people]
Gonna fight [for the people]
Liberate [all the people]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]

There’s a lot of different lefty political ways to think
And most of them think that most of them mostly stink
But maybe there’s some things we could agree on, I mean isn’t it fair to say—
We could start by taking the billionaires’ money away

Why don’t we just take the billionaire’s money away?
And spend it on shit for which millionaires say
We can’t afford to pay
We could start by taking the billionaires’ money away

There’s like, eight guys who own more than half of the whole human race
I’d like to sit down with you, and chat about just what that says
But I can’t be bothered, I’d rather be talking with people who are ready today
Ready to take those billionaires’ money away

And spend it on
Healthcare
Childcare
Transcare
Eldercare
Mental care
Dental care
Shelter
Etc.
You get the picture?

Some say we can’t do it, on account of the economy
Because rich people own more of it, so it scares investment, you see
But we’ve been doing it their way for a long time now, how’s that working out?
Okay. Then let’s innovate by taking the billionaires’ money away.

Now let’s take it up a tax bracket…

Some say we can’t do it, because the billionaires keep it all hid
But the government could find it if it wanted to, what if they did?
So if you say it can’t be done, I’m done with you, chum
Go take a billion holidays in the sun
With your friend, the Aga Khan
Or Richard Branson
Or that schmuck from Amazon
While the rest of us take the billionaires’ money away

We’re gonna take the billionaires’ money away
And spend it on shit for which millionaires say
We can’t afford to pay
We’re gonna take those billionaires’ money away

Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number,
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you -
We are many and they are few.
We are many - they are few.

What is Freedom?—you can tell
That which slavery is, too well—
For its very name has grown
To an echo of your own.

It is to work and have such pay
As just keeps life from day to day
In your limbs, as in a cell
For the tyrants’ use to dwell,

And to be for them made
Loom, and plough, and sword, and spade,
With or without your own will bent
To their defense and nourishment.

Rise like Lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number,
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in sleep had fallen on you -
We are many and they are few.
We are many - they are few.

This is a poem for the planet and its people
Who want to see the planet thrive in peace
And not cease

This is a poem for the planet and its people
Who want to see the planet thrive in peace
And not cease

This is a poem for the planet and its people
Who want to see the planet thrive in peace
And not cease

There is a place, an unassuming place
Where pure love grows
It grows in spite of, and despite, despair
In and out of the dark, darkness it grows
To bring light, to bring life
There, in that place, in that unassuming, sacred place
Where pure love grows

There, in that place, that unassuming place, sacred place
Where pure love grows
And all of the deities and magic seem to conspire together
To create the most perfect, imperfect place
Magical, miracle, love growing through steel and concrete
And broken dreams and bad choices
And lift their voices in song
To become the strongest most purest form of love
Real love

Laboured-on type love
Been-through-some-shit type love
Almost-died type love
All-I-wanna-do-is-live type love

This is a poem for the planet and its people
Who want to see the planet thrive in peace
And not cease

This is a poem for the planet and its people
Who want to see the planet thrive in peace
And not cease

Deadline, no time
Gotta save the planet before we flatline
Too late to rewind
Mindsets need to be reset, redesigned
Unwind from this mortal coil
Plant your heart and feet in the soil
'Cause these old ways ain't loyal
Plant some new shit and then fix it
The planet, that is, 'cause-

Deadline, no time
Gotta save the planet before we flatline
Deadline, no time
Gotta save the planet before we flatline

What we leave here matters
It seeps into Earth's core
Becomes its energy, its force, its fire
Like lava or love
We choose whether to burn
Or whether to build, whether to kill
Or whether to create, whether to make new
Whether to make better
Whether to make together
What we leave here matters

This is a poem for the planet and its people
Who want to see the planet thrive in peace
And not cease

Deadline, no time
Gotta save the planet before we flatline
Right now is the time
Can't believe you can't see it
Now do it, be it, dream it, shine

This is a poem for the planet and its people
Who want to see the planet thrive in peace
And not cease

Lyrics

Can you remember what it’s like
When all the world’s filled with light
Now do you have that in your sight
Spread it around, do
Spread it around, do
Spread it around, do

Have you felt joy in your days
Even though you’ve had your share of pain
What does hoarding that joy gain
Spread it around, do
Spread it around, do
Spread it around, do
Has your belly ever been full
And have you fed your family too
Does your table have just a little more room
Spread it around, do
Spread it around, do
Spread it around, do

Are your blankets soft and warm
Does the roof above you keep out the storms
Can you save someone еlse from being cold
Spread it around, do
Sprеad it around, do
Spread it around, do

It’s true about love
It’ll die if it’s covered up
It’s got to be all given away
So we can all feel the heat of its rays

Can you remember what it’s like
When all the world’s filled with light
Now do you have that in your sight
Spread it around, do
Spread it all around, do
Spread it around, do
Spread it around, do
Spread it around

lyrics

In the town known as Utopia, there are no bosses and no cops, everyone there has everything they need, food, water, shelter, and MOPs, people there can garden in the morning, then make art in the afternoon, people there sing and dance in the evening, freely doing what they want to do,

So remember if we ever have a problem we can get together and make a plan, first we will take what we need and then we will give what we can, the shell of the old world will try to turn your heart into stone, when the cops are against you, you are not alone,

In the town known as Utopia, work and play have been intertwined, everyday there is a new adventure that every person has designed, cornucopia is overflowing, there is always enough wine, people there participate in what they want to create and then they recline,

So remember if we ever have a problem we can get together and make a plan, first we will take what we need and then we will give what we can, the shell of the old world will try to turn your heart into stone, when the boss is against you, you are not alone, when the old world is against you, you are not alone
