She took my money with a smile
I said how long she said just awhile
I was shy my face was red
As she led me to her bed
...

I pulled a hair from my head,
It wasn't alive nor was it dead,
It was just one less hair upon my head.
I had that hair since I was born,
...

He awoke from his dirty muddy hole,
shivering cold, To be told,
by an officer with red tired eyes,
We attack before light,
...

...

In Vietnam where uncle Sam chose to fight,
And his sons wonder if its right,
That they should die,
Or return home minus leg arm or eye
...

Under a summers flowering tree
Sat her, him, you, and me.
We talked and laughed, of days gone by,
Dreamed and dreamed and wandered why.
...

The factory chimbley's
Which spout there smoke,
Brick wall some cracked
Some broke.
...

She laughed and cried,
In truth and lies.
She born the young,
Across lines nappies strung.

President Lincoln
Lies with a bullet
In his head,
Though still alive,
...

A clash of clouds, a flash of light,
And rain begins to spread the night.
And as it falls it dances on roofs,
Slides down drainpipes under pavement grooves.
...

Biafra and the things I see
Children's legs bent and buckled
Their stomach's free,
Free from food,
...

I awoke in a cold,
Cold sweat,
Scared I feared the devil
Was not at rest,
...

In a theatre of war
on a cold, cold day.
A bullit rang out,
and someone started to pray,
...

Bombs exploding
Guns reloading
Running, shooting
Soldiers looting
...

In the wilderness of the mind
there's a place I am trying to find
A home where peace can be found.
In the torment of every thought
...

Tide in tide out
Ebb and flow of the sea
And that's how
It will always be
...

Ushie laughs, Ushie smiles,
Ushie's full of life
Makes someone a good wife
For you I wish this life
...

Somewhere in England,
Somewhere there,
Lies my love, warm and bare,
Lies next to another
...

Remind me of death
so I can morn a little more
Give me back that feeling of loss
Just like I felt before,
...

Mr. President why don't you resign
the people have wanted you too
For a longtime
There fed-up with Watergate and
