Paul Shapera - The Movement 2 lyrics

(Amelia) In the movement In the nights of dead and dance In the movement When I'm offering out my hand In the movement I don't need you to pretend In the movement all I ask for is a friend In the movement Drugs and dance and spirits whirl In the movement As we flee our father's world At the crossroads so it goes we Need a love you cannot show me Can't you reach for me? Can't you reach for me? The burdens I bear that you never do see If you'd just please help me (Byron and other Voodoopunks) In the movement Loa live within our hands In the movement Our voodoo opens other lands In the movement Drugs and dance and spirits whirl In the movement And we reject our father's world In the movement Come and dance through the night In the movement Ridden by the blinding light At the crossroads and the barrow We have come to court the shadow (BYRON goes to podium at the political rally continues to bait the crowd) (Byron) My friends look around at this world that you've known The leeches are s**ing you dry to the bone The zombies are letting it all get away So vote for our Doll and throw it away You don't need a master, no government who Will take all you've earned, tell you what to do Our Doll will not lead you, he'll not bleed you dry Nor bribe nor coerce nor fail you nor lie There's coming a time not so far from right now When your rights will be gone and they'll make you bow down We stand at the crossroads and offer a way To ecstasy, freedom, a path, a new day This welfare of zombies is come to an end For zombies, your children are out of their heads They've left you for s**, d**, drums and the dead Come now and join us, come join us my friends! (Narrator) Over years jasper's taken Words and instrumentations From the music he channels night and day And he's used them to make A new song he can play To the crowd as he tries to communicate (Jasper takes center stage and all else but him fades.)
