Where
have all the saints gone?
To
the land of bliss where no bad things happen
They
don't have to hear evil or the crying shame
Every
day and night as they walk the land
Where
have all the good people gone?
The
men in blue take them to police lock-up
The
bad hats can't stand them at the traffic lights
Blinking
at them as they drive in their posh cars
Where
have all the corporate accountability gone?
They
try their best to play the games on the field
Passing
the buck let others take the fall
The
throw in and tackling moves
Where
have the young graduates gone?
They
hang around the cities
Rushing
here and there for jobs
Listen
to rumours gathering the storm
Where
have all the elders gone?
Some
try to talk sense to the politicians
Telling
them the total of their experiences
Many
stay at home caring for the young
Where
have all the people gone?
Working
hard to put food on the table
Finding
ways to extend the empty pockets
Wondering
what is there for tomorrow?
What
we must do to change our lives?
We
have to take stock of our values
We
have to fight back to get back our grounds
We
are the king makers we mustn't lose it out
