Talk To The People |
| There’s a brawl in a lonely whites only bar |
| A lekker groove in a classy shebeen |
| Someone betrayed in a government car |
| A silent movement on the stock market screen |
| A watchman playing on a zulu guitar |
| A white soldier’s blues in camouflage green |
| A migrant worker who’s come too far |
| A sailor aground in a submarine |
| Phendula wendoda |
| (answer, mister) |
| Lendlela sizofika kanjani |
| (this way, how will we arrive?) |
| Talk to the people |
| Walk through the country |
| Listen to the children |
| Do you know the dreams they dream at night |
| Only you, only you can see me |
| Only you, only you can free me |
| Only you breathe life into the land |
| Touch me with your healing hand |
| There’s a township mongrel on the scrounge |
| A tribal feud in a municipal 'pound |
| A squatter with an ox but no land to plough |
| A shipment of a.k.s on the underground |
| A throw of the dice on a soweto train |
| A waiting knife if you should win the game |
| A human rights lawyer with a torture claim |
| A union activitist never ever seen again |
| Phendula wemadoda |
| (give the answer…) |
| Talk to me |
| God hear the children |
| God save the country |
| God hear the people |
| God bless the dreams they dream at night |
