WE'VE GOTTA LEARN TO LOVE AND PRAY

We’ve scapegoats, demons, enemies galore, when Will we re-evaluate the lies? The facts we all too easily ignore, the screams, the moans, the kids’ and mothers’ cries! Complacency, indifference, and hate, all these too much possess our reckless hearts. Is it too much fer us ta pray and wait? ‘Cause prayer’s how real revolution starts!”

LET'S CHANGE

The Evil Empire is our very own, ‘cause We have Let those rule, who steal and kill. We never Hear our victims scream and groan; our love for all our Enemies seems nil. So What’s it gonna Take for us ta Care? And When will We begin ta understand? We gotta Recognize we need ta share; let’s Change our ways from horrible, ta grand! Okay?”

MADNESS OF THE ONE PERCENT

Madness of the One Percent

"We Bomb 'em, Steal their Oil, and Make some Gas, and THEN – the Gas we Made, we Pour on FIRES we've Set! We add some Cash, then GUESS what Comes ta Pass! It All Blows UP! They Haven't Stopped Us Yet!
There Might be Other Ways, we Just don't Know. We Hope they Never Find them, AnyWay! We're Never Gonna Reap the Death we Sow, and Wealthy's How we All are Gonna Stay!"

MORE LIGHT

More Light

WherEver Humans Big or Tiny Live, it Isn't Right to Waste a Single One. Each Needs the Loving Care the Christ can Give, that Heaven's Will by All of Us be Done. Yet Some reBel, they're Sure that's Just not True; "That's Cruel!" many Folks are Prone ta Say. "Why Love, there's Other, Urgent Things ta Do!" "We Just don't NEED that Human Life toDay." So Life beGins ta Flow right Down-the-Drain; our World is Torn aPart both Left-and-Right. ENOUGH of Murders, FearfulNess, and Pain! How Do we DARE ta Sin aGainst the Light? How do we DARE, I'm Askin' You!
