Seven Sports for All

Shining with charcter
swaying with your rhythm
never making gestures
I haven't got the time

Movements which involve persons changing
Movements which involve persons changing
Seven sports for all

Slip slip through your image
pointed steel and jealousy
feature in a future
I haven't got the time

No More Blue Horizons (Fool, fool, fool)

Fool, fool, fool
that's what I am
because I close my eyes
to everything I can

I open up my arms
I open up my loving arms
you kill me with your charms
and it happens all the time

Time and time again
can't hide this pain
I lie awake at night
and hear you call his name

Feel to be Driven Away

I am a cobra
a snake that is
reluctant to talk
or live on grass

Passing through electrical fences
uniform and opposition fade

I travel distance, make my
I make my exit by the tree

I hide behind chairs
feel driven away
too smart to answer
questions, always questions

Some People I Know to Lead Fantastic Lives

Some people I know to lead fantastic lives
they never try to see
just why they hypnotize

The truth I hear
is not what I always see
they're praying hard that
something happens to me

I wait for the water
I hope they'll drown
I've reasons in my head
for keeping myself down

Christian

This is emotion
emotion less war
a torn shirt and a long dead cause
I can't sleep
this kind of thing gets me down
don't say walk
I may lose my fear

Chorus:
I could lose myself
in this honesty
(x2)

I read all sorts of things
there's so much to learn
I've seen the hand that rushes in
as it rush over you

(chorus)

"Christian"

African and White

Africana, African and white
you're closer than you really ever know
and we all run the risk of
to remain silent
I don't know

We need your faith and hostility
to be certain of a change
and could you ever recover from
forever recover from this prejudice

Are We a Worker

People go on living
the worker's hour shared
women they join in anger
their voices can be heard

Chorus:
We are workers
we are workers in a field

Country man and woman
confused by all they see
carry guns into the city
in the name of you and me

(chorus)

Here's something to remember
so pass the word around
love can last forever
in a million hearts
I've found

Red Sails

Big kisses for small fishes
property trading
the wrong places
we all work hard
for God's blessings
there's no mistaking
she feels important

If I had a soul
would I recognise
If I looked just like summer
would I realise

Red sails
into the sunset
the only reason for her leaving
come tomorrow
will she be closer
too many secrets
I should have told her

You Never See It

Tin boats and wooden huts
or be a truck
where women rule
you never see it

A nation screams
there's dust in the air
their tears flow like rivers
you never see it

Dry air on catalogued shelves
you may decay
you may fade away
you never see it

Temptation's Big Blue Eyes

They push and pull you through
and try to change your attitude
well I hope you're not unaware
these situations
and why they occur

Chorus:
Two boys and two girls
and what a party
we could have had
so many souls in different worlds
and, what a difference
we're going to make
to someone who's special like you

Temptation's big blue eyes
they're disbelievers in a thin disguise
well, I need a cause for my empty head
I've no illusions
and my flag is red

(chorus)

Am I too serious
maybe too young at heart
too stupid to understand
my politics are a one night stand
