Lay Down

Madrepore

woke up to do something

diverted by the news five nights a day

strike with precision inflict jingoism

for fools to guzzle wage.



lying down on the fire

i found something to say

you complain about most things

but do nothing.



lay down with the sleeping children now x3

make the children wake.



shine my ways

feels like your god is scratching my faith

just like you said sometimes

it's like an ocean perfect at times.



nuclear fights like the subway

are shooting back at you in your insidious ways

let this peaceful coalition destroy television

and get books for children's sake.



[chorus]



shakti



bring down the commotion

bringing the commotion down! X2



[chorus]
