Lite A Flame (The Animal Rights Song)
In the zoo
they gave him a cage
circus put a sparkle
on his face
away from life
the elephant walks
shadow across a dream
lost for ivory
oh, freedom
lite a flame
it's like prejudice
Songtextefor the color of your skin
prejudice for a woman
prejudice for an animal
like the elephant
of the plain
masai moon
in the morningrise
Africa?
the world comes alive
a matriarch
leads the tribe
to the sweet water
the cool feelin'
and the way to survive
oh, freedom
lite a flame
it's like prejudice
for the color of your skin
prejudice for a woman
prejudice for an animal
like the elephant of the plain
of the plain
for greed, not need
societies sleep
lead the killing hand on?
young ones
full of spark
a wave of birds
across the park
kids climbing
sliding, riding free
elephant child hiding
behind a tree
prejudice
for an animal
like the elephant
of the plain
