Donovan - The Voice Of Protest lyrics

The human race is sleeping, half of us are weeping Ignorance is creeping, darkening our way No teacher is teaching, no plan is far reaching The Hawks of Greed are screeching, poisoning our day. As 'round and 'round and 'round we go The seeds of misery we sow 'Round and 'round and down we go Your leader is lost and we don't know. Brother, sister aching, fear and mistrust making Giving nought, all taking, emptying the heart The pain of not giving, pretending we're living No one ever forgiving the drama of the dead. As 'round and 'round and 'round we go The seeds of misery we sow 'Round and 'round and down we go You may well ask which way to go Your leader is lost and he don't know. Time he is our Master, more quantity and faster Directions to disaster, forgetting all we've learned The children are searching, drugtaking and churching While the old Earth Ship she's lurching all on her starry way. As 'round and 'round and 'round we go The seeds of misery we sow 'Round and 'round and down we go You may well ask which way to go Your leader is lost and he don't know.
