John Trudell - The Newspaper Stand/Round Dance lyrics

At the newspaper stand Walking down a hungry street Vacant eyes pa**ing citizens by City boulevards skidding rows Tucked between storied buildings Concrete profit erections Reaching into sky While policeman's circling blocks At the newspaper stand A man sleeps in a show store doorway Just around the corner A POW's duty to escape Bros and a Sister riding the needle While policeman's circling blocks At the newspaper stand Somebody needs a dime for food he says As yesterdays wine Falls from his forehead Someone's brother walks with Someone's sister What they do best, one of them for sale While policeman's circling blocks At the newspaper stand Newspaper headline warning Guerilla insurgency Central America Capitalist must stop communist plot Keep world free for Democracy And Human Rights and Human Dignity While politicians circling blocks I read an article about a woman A woman living in the war In Central America I read an article about a woman A woman living in the war In central America A woman lost her family A woman the only survivor A woman goes to sleep one night A woman waking up A woman not a mother anymore anymore A woman held on she could not scream A woman not submitting to the enemy A woman praying for women On the other side A woman rebuilding her life A woman in the Middle East A woman in Europe A woman in Africa A woman in Asia A woman in North America A woman in Different Situations A woman all the same A woman pays for man's war At the newspaper stand Newspaper headlines warning Guerrilla insurgency Central America Capitalist must stop Communist plot Keep world free for democracy And human rights and human dignity While policeman's circling blocks
