"But if I work all day on the Blue Sky Mine (Therell be food on the table tonight) Still I walk up and down on the Blue Sky Mine Therell be pay in your pocket tonight)The candy store paupers lie to the shareholders.

The sweat of my brow keeps on feeding the engine. Hope the crumbs in my pocket can keep me for another night."

"People wasting away In paradise. Going backwards, once in a while, Taking your time, give it a try. What do you believe, what do you believe? What do you believe is true? Nothing they say makes a difference this way, Nothing they say will do."

"We dont serve your country, Dont serve your king. Know your custom, dont speak your tongue. White man came took everyone."

"The rich get richer, The poor get the picture. The bombs never hit you when youre down so low.Some got pollution, Some revolution. There must be some solution but I just dont know."
