Word Game (LP版) - Stephen Stills (史蒂芬·史提斯)[00:00:00]

Would you knock a man down if you don't like[00:00:15]

The cut of his clothes[00:00:18]

Could you put a man away[00:00:22]

If you don't want to hear what he knows[00:00:24]

Well it's happening right here people dying of fear[00:00:30]

By the droves[00:00:33]

And I know most of you[00:00:37]

Either don't believe it's true[00:00:39]

Or else you don't know what to do[00:00:41]

Or maybe I'm singing about you[00:00:42]

Who knows[00:00:45]

It's incredibly sick you can feel it as across[00:00:48]

The land it flows[00:00:51]

Prejudice is slick when it's a word game it festers and grows[00:00:56]

Move along quick it furthers one to have somewhere to go[00:01:04]

You can feel it as it's rumblin'[00:01:10]

Let emotions keep a tumblin'[00:01:12]

Then as cities start to crumblin'[00:01:14]

Mostly empty bellies grumblin'[00:01:16]

Here we go[00:01:18]

People see somebody different fear is the first reaction shown[00:01:38]

Then they think they've got him licked[00:01:45]

The barbaric hunt begins[00:01:47]

And they move in slow[00:01:48]

A human spirit is devoured[00:01:52]

The remains left to carrion crow[00:01:54]

I was told that life is change[00:02:00]

And yet history remains[00:02:02]

Does it always stay the same[00:02:03]

Do we shrug it off and say[00:02:05]

Only God knows[00:02:06]

By and by somebody usually goes[00:02:22]

Down to the ghetto[00:02:29]

Try and help but they don't know why folks treat them cold[00:02:30]

And the rich keep getting richer and the rest of us[00:02:36]

Just keep getting old[00:02:39]

You see one must have a mission[00:02:44]

In order to be a good Christian[00:02:46]

If you don't you will be missing[00:02:47]

High Mass[00:02:48]

Or the evening show[00:02:50]

And the well fed masters reap[00:02:54]

The harvests of the polluted seeds[00:02:55]

They've sown[00:02:57]

Smug and self righteous they b**ch about people they owe[00:03:01]

And you can't prove them wrong[00:03:07]

They're so God d**n sure they know[00:03:10]

I have seen these things with my very own eyes[00:03:15]

And defended my battered soul[00:03:18]

It must be too tough to die[00:03:20]

American propaganda South African lies[00:03:22]

Will not force me to take up arms that's my enemies' pride[00:03:25]

Ands I won't fight by his rules that's foolishness besides[00:03:28]

His ignorance is gonna do him in and nobody's gonna cry[00:03:32]

Because his children they are growing up[00:03:35]

And plainly tired of putting up[00:03:37]

With bigots and their silver cups[00:03:39]

They're fed up they might throw up[00:03:41]

On you alright[00:03:42]
