Running With The Hurricane
White sands on sacred land, B52s in Arnhem landCold wars buccaneers, lasers in the stratosphereTheres a shadow across the sun,alarms of struggle and fight.Theres poisoned seeds in the perfumed garden and the spectra of an endless nightThunder in the distance, Running with the hurricaneFeel the cold winds tuning, keep the faith burningFire in the Ukraine, dust on the high plainsThunder in the distance, running with the hurricaneVogue fashions, empty passions, world banks,corporation think tanks.Feeding us our new-made views,With our Weeties and our septic news. Geriatric G-grade actor, power in his paternal smileHis inane quotes are last years jokesNow we judge all his lies on styleThunder in the distance, Running with the hurricaneFeel the cold winds tuning, keep the faith burningFire in the Ukraine, dust on the high plainsThunder in the distance, running with the hurricaneMelt-down, southbound, the winds are blowing gale forceSongtexteGather up the children, batten down the doorsHopes like a beacon in the howling nightMuruoa, Pine Gap, Greenham CommonTogether its going to be a long, hard fightThunder in the distance, Running with the hurricaneFeel the cold winds tuning, keep the faith burningFire in the Ukraine, dust on the high plainsThunder in the distance, running with the hurricaneRambo, cult machismo, Armageddon, the clouds keep spreadingWarriors rule by fear, fission for the profiteersMass march, rally in the twilight, heart and soul, a call for peaceIf power is blocked through the ballot boxThen we'll vote in the open streets.
