Word Game(Live Version)

Word Game (Live Version) - Stephen Stills[00:00:00]

Would you knock a man down[00:00:17]

If you don't like the cut of his clothes[00:00:19]

Could you put a man away if[00:00:24]

You don't want to hear what he knows[00:00:25]

Well it's happening right here[00:00:30]

People dying of fear by the droves[00:00:32]

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[00:00:40]

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

Who knows [00:00:44]

It's incredibly sick [00:00:51]

You can feel it as across the land it flows[00:00:53]

Prejudice is slick when it's a word game [00:00:58]

It festers and grows [00:01:01]

Move along quick [00:01:04]

It furthers one to have somewhere to go[00:01:05]

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

Let emotions keep a tumblin'[00:01:11]

Then as cities start to crumblin'[00:01:13]

Mostly empty bellies grumblin'[00:01:15]

Here we go[00:01:16]

People see somebody different[00:01:53]

Fear is the first reaction shown[00:01:54]

Then they think they've got him licked the[00:02:00]

Barbaric hunt begins and they move in slow[00:02:01]

A human spirit is devoured the[00:02:09]

Remains left to carrion crows[00:02:11]

I was told that life is change[00:02:20]

And yet history remains [00:02:21]

Does it always stay the same[00:02:23]

Do we shrug it off and say[00:02:25]

Only God knows[00:02:26]

By and by [00:02:33]

Somebody usually goes down to the ghetto[00:02:35]

Try and help but they don't know[00:02:41]

Why folks treat them cold[00:02:43]

And the rich keep getting richer[00:02:47]

And the rest of us just keep getting old [00:02:48]

You see one must have a mission[00:02:54]

In order to be a good Christian[00:02:56]

If you don't you will be missing[00:02:58]

High Mass of the evening show[00:03:00]

And the well fed masters reap the[00:03:07]

Harvests of the polluted seeds they've sown [00:03:08]

Smug and self-righteous they[00:03:13]

Bitch about people they own [00:03:15]

And you can't prove them wrong [00:03:20]

They're so God damn sure they know[00:03:22]

I have seen these things with my very own eyes[00:03:27]

And defended my battered soul [00:03:30]

It must be too tough to die [00:03:32]

American propaganda South African lies[00:03:33]

Will not force me to take up arms [00:03:36]

That's my enemies' pride [00:03:38]

And I won't fight by his rules[00:03:40]

That's foolishness besides [00:03:42]

His ignorance is gonna do him in[00:03:43]

And nobody's gonna cry [00:03:45]

Because his children they are growing up[00:03:46]

They are growing up[00:03:48]

With bigots and their silver cups[00:03:50]

They're fed up they might throw up[00:03:51]

On you[00:03:52]
