the truth burning open



The apple polishers
The shining heads in the sun
Don't they know it is hot out there?
With El Nino sweeping through the nation?

Maybe they don't feel it
Hiding in the air-conditioned offices
They don't use their brains
They think we are so stupid!

The leading actor wants to forget
The bad report and publicity
Without answers to the people
There is nothing to forgive

The heat will keep piling up
It isn't so easy to forget and move on
Be a man and take the fall
It is the noble thing to do

It is the principle of good behaviour
Don't they learn in schools and at homes?
Sad to see they have forgotten
With blindness to power, greed and corruption

The truth is burning to heat their brains
The rain will pour in heavily
Sweeping them off their feet
Into Bamboo River dancing waves
