Gunship Ghetto lyrics

Gunship Ghetto -- steeleye stiletto
Feather Pillow Dream
Crazy boym your sister`s crying
Tell me where the hell you been
Border Order Prison Warder
Mortar Bomb Daughter Scream
Gunship Ghetto -- steeleye stiletto

I`m going to where history won`t reach me
To find where time stands still
I need to find some peace of mind
And if you let me in I probably will

Chorus:
Speak to the sky, there`s no reply
Just the endless empty blue
While deep in the night, there is a fight

Hamba madoda! Aya hamba madoda
[March away men, the men are marching away]
Sodibana pambliyo sodibana phambili yo!
[We will meet up ahead]

Paper holder holds a soldier
Not yet born to be
But six months older, he`ll be much bolder
See things he`s never seen
I need freedom, just like the next one
But sometimes it doesn`t do
`Cause I need you to be there
When I`m troubled
I need to see this thing through with you

Behind the barrel of a gun
Love and friendship can become
Just another point of view
The battle is won but my heart overcome
`Cause what is lost of part of you

Chorus

Hamba madoda! Aya hamba madoda
I`m just marching away -- just marching away
What do you say -- I`m just marching away

Sebehambile hambile [They have all gone, all gone]
Sebehambile hambile
Umhlaba unzima sodibana phambile yo!
[The world is a difficult place -- we shall meet up ahead]
Umhlaba unzima sodibana phambile yo
