About the Artist
Lyrics
Stone the crows if you've done it again If I've told you once, told you a thousand times Sometimes I am so convinced We're casting pearl amongst the swine Don't ever let me hear you say This is the life we folks must lead We shun the limelight, shun the glare And the circus built on a bigot's creed Heaven is a place I've heard But we haven't been there yet, I fear We may have opened pearly gates But sometimes hell stills steals in here Don't ever let me hear you say This is the life we folks must lead Do you think silver turns our locks? What gold do you think paves our streets? You say we're in a different world now Where money and love go hand in hand But can't you see we share this town So why should we fight on our native land? Can't you see we share this town So why on earth should we tear it down?
