the outsiders


The outsiders
They write and tell us
What's wrong in our nation?
If only we come to it

The PR machinery swings in
They try to discredit it
Painting the sky cloudy
Telling us don't believe the stories

But the truth never sing
The ministers keep quiet
Even they may have known
The truth in their minds

They try to show in unity
The cohesion in their efforts
But we know it isn't true
They have something to hide

The outsiders never know
How we work and our cultures
Maybe they can fool the rural follks
But town and city folks we know better

The devil woman on the rise
In the corridor of shadows and back doors
The big red eyes glowing in the dark
And she smiles so sweetly

Believe me children
I tell you the truth
In the ground where I lay
I listen to your woes”

But is she?
She wants to eat her cake
She isn't going to share
So we better wake up
