1.End Of War
Mankind must put an end to war
Or war will end Mankind.
Ask just who your fighting for
And who's the mastermind.
Question what we're doing here
How long can we sustain,
The guilt that feeds upon our fear
We've only got ourselves to blame.
It easy to be Bold and Brave
From a thousand miles away,
Its easy to pontificate
And live to fight another day. CHORUS
Its easy when the bullets
Are an Echo of a ricochet,
But the quickest way to end a war
Is drop your guns and walk away .
And once again we find ourselves
Upon the field of War
It seems like all our yesterdays
Are on repeat But furthermore,
It would appear we did'nt learn
The lessons of our past,
The war we fought to end all wars,
Secured a Peace that did'nt last
It easy to be Bold and Brave
From a thousand miles away,
Its easy to pontificate
And live to fight another day.
Its easy when the bullets
Are an Echo of a ricochet,
But the quickest way to end a war
Is drop your guns and walk away .
It easy to be Bold and Brave
From a thousand miles away,
Its easy to pontificate
And live to fight another day.
Its easy when the bullets
Are an Echo of a ricochet,
But the quickest way to end a war
Is drop your guns and walk away .
Mankind must put an end to war
Or war will end Mankind.
Ask just who your fighting for
And who's the mastermind.
Question what we're doing here
How long can we sustain,
The guilt that feeds upon our fear
We've only got ourselves to blame.
It easy to be Bold and Brave
From a thousand miles away,
Its easy to pontificate
And live to fight another day.
Its easy when the bullets
Are an Echo of a ricochet,
But the quickest way to end a war
Is drop your guns and walk away .
2.Lost And Found
Anybody could be me, you could be standing here
It's so very easy for me to disappear
No-one seems to see me; it's as if I don't exist
I'm going nowhere and I know I won't be missed
I was lost, now I'm found
Looks like finally, somebody up there's got an eye on me
Underground, chained and bound, suddenly I'm free
I was lost, now I'm found but reason to be me
Everyone is waiting, everyday is just the same
Everybody needs some happiness to counteract the pain
Maybe somewhere, someday, someone will notice me
I could find myself again and hope and dignity yeah
I was lost (what made you leave me?)
Now I'm found (what made you go?)
Looks like finally, somebody up there's got an eye on me
(You never need me)
Underground, chained and bound, suddenly I'm free
(You let me go)
I was lost, now I'm found but reason to be me
I was lost (what made you leave me?)
Now I'm found (what made you go?)
Looks like finally, somebody up there's got an eye on me
(You never need me)
Underground, chained and bound, suddenly I'm free
(You let me go)
I was lost, now I'm found but reason to be me
I was lost (what made you leave me?)
Now I'm found (what made you go?)
Looks like finally, somebody up there's got an eye on me
(You never need me)
Underground, chained and bound, suddenly I'm free
(You let me go)
I was lost, now I'm found but reason to be me

Lyricist:Wayne Beckford, James Stephen Brown, Robin Campbell, Desmond
Dacres, Arthur Elliott, Earl Falconer, Norman Lamount Hassan,
Brian David Travers, Terrence Oswald Wilson
Wake up in the mornin', bump this in your stereo
In your car or blaze it in your disco
People look confused, 'What is this, yo?'
Hip-Hop, a little bit a Reggae in it
This one is for those who like the old school
Try to hate on us, you new school fool
Let's take it back to basics, use the old tools
Check this out now, let me tell you how to do it
Let your body work
(Yeah)
Can you feel it jerk?
(Yeah)
This one's gonna make you move til' your body hurts

We're gonna dance until the morning light
Right, right, right
Let your body work

Can you feel it jerk?
(Yeah)
This one's gonna make you move til' your body hurts
(Yeah)
We're gonna dance until the morning light
Right, right, right
Twist, shake, rattle and roll and keep it jiggy-jiggy
All my girls dip low and keep it flicky-flicky
Now let it loose, just let it go and act silly
Mister DJ
(Can you turn it up a little?)
Get up off the wall and stop your posin'
Screw-face just standin' lookin' frozen
Hurry, buster, move the club is closin'
Hit the dance floor, let me tell you how to do it

And you better get on your feet, I don't want you sittin' down
(Hey, break it down)
Let's stop the whinin', start the grindin', let's just gather
'round
(Hey, break it down)
'Cause good music always come back around
Ask your grandmother and grandfather about this
How they were twistin' and shakin' when they first heard this
Forty years later now it's back on the playlist
We recycled it and now they're back in business
We put it back in the pot and, yes, we're stirrin' it up
We add some sugar and the spice and now we're makin' it hot
And now we're runnin' your city and, yes, we're runnin' your
block
And when we're talkin', no, we never gonna stop
So just
Let your body work
(Yeah)
Can you feel it jerk?
(Yeah)
This one's gonna make you move til' your body hurts
(Yeah)
We're gonna dance until the morning light
Right, right, right
Let your body work
(Yeah)
Can you feel it jerk?
(Yeah)
This one's gonna make you move til' your body hurts
(Yeah)
We're gonna dance until the morning light
Right, right, right
4.This Is How It Is
This is how it is
This is how it goes
You come into this world alone
And travel down this road
You try to do the best you can
But there's no guarantees
So one day you'll be flying high
The next down on your knees
Chorus
I guess were on our own
I know that's nothing new
Today is just a stepping stone
Along the avenue
Tomorrow I'll be coming home
I'll find a rendezvous
I'll run towards the great unknown
And drink the morning dew Ohhhhh
This is what's it's like
And how it is to choose
Were you stop along the way
And fix your worn out shoes
How to recognise a girl
Avoiding all her mates
Forget the things you thought you knew
You may as well again
Chorus
I guess were on our own
I know that's nothing new
Today is just a stepping stone
Along the avenue
Tomorrow I'll be coming home
I'll find a rendezvous
I'll run towards the great unknown
And drink the morning dew Ohhhhh
This is how it goes, This is how it fairs
When all the world is falling down
And dragging at your hair
This is what they say
If you should ask them why
The world is in a backward spin
You fall, you live, you die
Chorus
I guess were on our own
I know that's nothing new
Today is just a stepping stone
Along the avenue
Tomorrow I'll be coming home
I'll find a rendezvous
I'll run towards the great unknown
And drink the morning dew Ohhhhh
Chorus
I guess were on our own
I know that's nothing new
Today is just a stepping stone
Along the avenue
Tomorrow I'll be coming home
I'll find a rendezvous
I'll run towards the great unknown
And drink the morning dew Ohhhhh
5.Rainbow Nation
Lyricist:James Stephen Brown, Ali Campbell, Robin Campbell, Earl
Falconer, Norman Lamount Hassan, Brian David Travers, Michael
Anthony Virtue, Terrence Oswald Wilson
In our youthful condemnation
The truth speaks for itself
That in a time of darkness
Someone cried for help
So we told a simple story
Of innocence and lies
How the truth became so twisted
In a single judges eyes
Our brave new rainbow nation
Was floating on the tide
In a sea of expectation
And a hard-won sense of pride
But the wave of solidarity
That swept across our land
Was broken on the rocks
Left lifeless on the sand
It all seemed very simple
Let the guilty take the blame
We can sing our songs of freedom
And put them all to shame
Shine a light into the darkness
Let them hear his name
But the more we tried to change things
The more they stayed the same
Our brave new rainbow nation
Was floating on the tide
In a sea of expectation
And a hard-won sense of pride
But the wave of solidarity
That swept across our land
Was broken on the rocks
Left lifeless on the sand
And no one else but Tyler
Knows exactly what he's missed
He's a man that's disappearing
Slowly ceasing to exist
And the only contribution
That he has left to give
Is the simple tragic story
Of the life he's never lived
Our brave new rainbow nation
Was floating on the tide
In a sea of expectation
And a hard-won sense of pride
But the wave of solidarity
That swept across our land
Was broken on the rocks
Left lifeless on the sand
Our brave new rainbow nation
Was floating on the tide
In a sea of expectation
And a hard-won sense of pride
But the wave of solidarity
That swept across our land
Was broken on the rocks
Left lifeless on the sand
6.Here We Go Again
We've lost our way and don't know which way to turn
Here we go again
We put trust in great man and still we get burnt
Here we go again
Why do we fall for the same old lines?
Why do we fall for it time after time?
We've lost our way inadvertently
????????????????????
So dark that we can't see
????????????????????
I'm talking you and me
You've lost your pride and don't know when it began
Here we go again
You sit in judgement over your fellow men
Here we go again
Why do you fall for the same old lines?
Why do you fall for it time after time?
You've lost your pride inadvertently
To scared to talk
Too scared to look and see
Too scared to walk
Too scared to run to me
To scared to talk
Too scared to look and see
Too scared to walk
Too scared to run to me
We've gone too far and don't know where it will end
Here we go again
We've eaten up nature
And were gonna get burned
Here we go again
Why do we choose to leave no warning signs?
Why do we do it time after time?
We've gone to too far inadvertently
No where to run as far as I can see
Nowhere to run
No end for you and me
Too scared to talk
Too scared to look and see
Too scared to walk
To scared to run to me
To scared to to scared to to scared to talk
To scared to to scared to to scared to talk
7.I Shot The Sheriff
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy, oh no! Oh!
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy, ooh, ooh, oo-ooh.)
Yeah! All around in my home town,
They're tryin' to track me down;
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy,
For the life of a deputy.
But I say:
Oh, now, now. Oh!
(I shot the sheriff.) - the sheriff.
(But I swear it was in selfdefence.)
Oh, no! (Ooh, ooh, oo-oh) Yeah!
I say: I shot the sheriff - Oh, Lord! -
(And they say it is a capital offence.)
Yeah! (Ooh, ooh, oo-oh) Yeah!
Sheriff John Brown always hated me,
For what, I don't know:
Every time I plant a seed,
He said kill it before it grow -
He said kill them before they grow.
And so:
Read it in the news:
(I shot the sheriff.) Oh, Lord!
(But I swear it was in self-defence.)
Where was the deputy? (Oo-oo-oh)
I say: I shot the sheriff,
But I swear it was in selfdefence. (Oo-oh) Yeah!
Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah!
All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down,
So I shot - I shot - I shot him down and I say:
If I am guilty I will pay.
(I shot the sheriff,)
But I say (But I didn't shoot no deputy),
I didn't shoot no deputy (oh, no-oh), oh no!
(I shot the sheriff.) I did!
But I didn't shoot no deputy. Oh! (Oo-oo-ooh)
Reflexes had got the better of me
And what is to be must be:
Every day the bucket a-go a well,
One day the bottom a-go drop out,
One day the bottom a-go drop out.
I say:
I - I - I - I shot the sheriff.
Lord, I didn't shot the deputy. Yeah!
I - I (shot the sheriff) -
But I didn't shoot no deputy, yeah! No, yeah!
8.Oh America!
Chorus:
Oh America, land of the free
Your flag is flying, but it looks dirty to me
Oh America, home of the brave
Anywhere you go you're leaving too many graves
The chest is so big but the brain is too small
The whole world's crying out 'just stop the wars'
Don't care about the climate, don't care about the poor
You don't seem to care about too much at all
You say you're with God but you wield Satan's sword
With kangaroo courts you just make up your laws
No human rights oh yes we know the score
The bogey man is close, he may live next door
When the floods came down it showed all your old traits
Condemned your own people on the basis of race
Why leave vulnerable people in a vulnerable place?
Its a crying shame, it's a freaking disgrace
I say the government man, them seem to get it wrong
Them seem to make a whole heap of bad decision
Time fe good Americans to stand up strong
Like the friends over there we know for so long
Stand up firm, me say, stand up strong
Time fe mek a new day, we no love Babylon
Me say, stand up firm, me say, stand up strong
Time fe mek a new day, we no love Babylon
9.Once Around
Lyricist:Abraham Battat, Jim Stewart
Once around was all I ever needed
And in my dreams, you take me by the hand
And I know that you will be with me forever
As the wheel takes us both once more around
Once around, the wheel begins revolving
Our bodies slowly lifted from the ground
The hustle of the city slowly fading
And a heartbeat is the only living sound
Once around was all I ever needed
And in my dreams, you take me by the hand
And I know that you will be with me forever
As the wheel takes us both once more around
We slowly watch the night give way to morning
And hope we can suspend ourselves in time
And somehow make this moment last forever
And leave the ones who need us far behind
Once around is all I have to give you
Close your eyes, you don't have to make a sound
By the time it takes this wheel to stop revolving
There's something that you need to understand
Once around was all I ever needed
And in my dreams, you take me by the hand
And I know that you will be with me forever
As the wheel takes us both once more around
Once around was all I ever needed
And in my dreams, you take me by the hand
And I know that you will be with me forever
As the wheel takes us both once more around
Around

12.Instant Radical Change Of Perception
Lyricist:James Stephen Brown, Ali Campbell, Robin Campbell, Earl
Falconer, Norman Lamount Hassan, Brian David Travers, Michael
Anthony Virtue, Terrence Oswald Wilson
It's the stuff we think we know
That stops us all from learning
It's the wood that needs to grow
That keeps your fires burning
You can educate a fool
You can wrap him up in Ermine
You can read him all the rules
But you can never make him think
With an instant radical change of perception
A hundred and eighty degrees in direction
Inoculate against the infection
And set a new course on a brand new tradjection
In a brand new direction
It's the green house that we're heating
That makes tomorrow colder
And doomsday's drums are beating
A tattoo upon your shoulder
You can educate a fool
He could be a title holder
You can read him all the rules
But you can never make him think
With an instant radical change of perception
A hundred and eighty degrees in direction
Inoculate against the infection
And set a new course on a brand new tradjection
It's the green house that we're heating
That makes tomorrow colder
And doomsday's drums are beating
A tattoo upon your shoulder
You can educate a fool
He could be a title holder
You can read him all the rules
But you can never make him think
With an instant radical change of perception
A hundred and eighty degrees in direction
Inoculate against the infection
And set a new course on a brand new tradjection
In a brand new direction
A change of perception
On a brand new tradjection
In a brand new direction
A change of perception
On a brand new tradjection
13.It's All In The Game
Lyricist:Charles Dawes, Carl Sigman
Many a tear has to fall
But it's all in the game
All in the wonderful game
That we know as love
You have words with him
And your future's looking dim
But these things
Your hearts can rise above
Once in a while he won't call
But it's all in the game
Soon he'll be there at your side
With a sweet bouquet
And he'll kiss your lips
And caress your waiting fingertips
And your heart
Will fly away
And he'll kiss your lips
And caress your waiting fingertips
And your heart
Will fly away
Once in a while he won't call
But it's all in the game
Soon he'll be there at your side
With a sweet bouquet
And he'll kiss your lips
And caress your waiting fingertips
And your heart
Will fly away
14.I'll Be There
So get learning you lot hahahahah
..........................................................
I never promised you my heart
I never said that I would go
but im not perfect
I never said about your way
I never promised you a thing
but Im not perfect
Chorus
But I would put no one above you
And you will always know I care
As long as you will let me love you
I'll be there
You asked me could I love you more
I'ts only you that I adore
But your not believing
How could I ever break your heart
I couldn't bear to be apart
So i'm not leaving
Chorus x2
You asked me could I love you more
I'ts only you that I adore
But your not believing
How could I ever break your heart
I couldn't bear to be apart
So i'm not leaving
Chorus x2 to fade
15.Middle Of The Night
It came out of the darkness
In the middle of the night
A black and winding serpent
With flashing crimson eyes
The camera lights the innocent
Their faces frozen in time
With fearful expectation of
Where next the beast will strike
It rumbled through the neighbourhood
With fiercely twinkling eyes
And waited at the doorway
For his tail to arrive
Its head came through the window
Its body through the door
And it pulled itself together
As it ran across the floor
And before our eyes, the fireflies
Were dancing round his head
We watched in screaming silence
As he was stolen from his bed
Suddenly, it's over
And not a word was said
Now no-one knows if he's alive or if he's dead
16.Securing The Peace
Securing the peace then preparing for war
And the people don't know what they're fighting for
Securing the peace then preparing for war
And the people don't know what they're fighting for
In peacetime sons bury their fathers
In war fathers bury their sons
The dead are all labeled as martyrs
And the living inherit the bullet and the gun
If religious crusade is your calling
Ask your god if he'll stop the bombs falling
On the heads of the poor that were silenced today
They were wailing so loud you can't hear yourself pray
A single death is tragic, a million a statistic
To say the war is fought for peace sounds cynically sadistic
Take your prayers and take your blaspheming
To the graves where the mothers are screaming
You can't convince me that you feel the loss
The last real Christian you killed on the cross
And while the world plays hide and seek
To cover up the violence
Innocence claims the right to speak
And guilt the right to silence
17.Road
The road back to freedom translates as a fake
And shakes and mistakes turns into heartache
When losing their blood they give up their take
and check a mistake turn to heartache
Five hundred thousand forced to flee
A million square miles of emergency
Another two million will go hungry
When there's no guarantee for the refugee
The road from Dhafur runs red with denial
Waterless mile, after waterless mile
Barefooted fear kicks the dust of exile
Waterless mile after waterless mile
Five hundred thousand forced to flee
A million square miles of emergency
Another two million will go hungry
When there's no guarantee for the refugee
The road out of Gaza is plagued with lost souls
Buried in holes, by the border patrols
What claims we've give them they cannot control
Drown in the holes in their land of lost souls
The road left to freedom translates as a fake
And shakes and mistakes turns into heartache
When losing their blood they give up their take
and check a mistake turn to heartache
Five hundred thousand forced to flee
A million square miles of emergency
Another two million will go hungry
When there's no guarantee for the refugee
The road from Dhafur runs red with denial
Waterless mile, after waterless mile
Barefooted fear kicks the dust of exile
Waterless mile after waterless mile
